from USA TODAY (online edition) article by Calum Macleod:
BEJING — The Chinese New Year starts this week. So it's time for people here to get a new calendar — and a dose of propaganda, ranging from the importance of the government's "one child" policy to the virtues of President Xi Jinping.
Giving a colorful calendar, with dates marked for both the lunar and Gregorian systems, remains a common New Year tradition in China. The year of the sheep starts Thursday (Feb. 19, 2015).
