In this photo taken Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2012, police officers, one appearing in plain clothes the other in uniform, look back as they keep a watchful eye after a religious ceremony at a monastery in Jiuzhaigou, in northwestern China's Sichuan province. Smothering security has become an intrusive fact of life in China's Tibetan areas, from police stationed around monasteries to document checks at roadblocks. The Intense security is one reason Tibet's exiled government in India called on Tibetans this year to shun celebrations for their traditional new year, which started Wednesday, Feb. 22, 2012. Instead, Tibetans are urged to pray for those living under Chinese rule. (AP Photo/Andy Wong)AP - Police don't travel far to monitor the goings-on at the Gami Temple at the edge of the Tibetan plateau. The police station sits inside the monastery, just outside the gates to the main prayer hall.
