Jason Pierre-Paul Jersey XIAN - When Han Qinglong arrived in Beijing last Friday, the capital city was warm and the sky blue. Ahmad Bradshaw Super Bowl Jersey . It was a very pleasant day, just like I felt inside, recalled Han, head officer of the Heritage Inspection Team under the Xian Public Security Bureau, Shaanxi province. Han Qinglong, head officer of the Heritage Inspection Team under the Xian Public Security Bureau, shows a cultural relic that was retrieved from the hands of tomb robbers, on Jan 11. [Provided to China Daily] The 46-year-old policeman, who has been fighting tomb robbery and smuggling of cultural relics during the past five years, arrived in Beijing to clear customs for the return of five Tang Dynasty (AD 618-907) murals illegally sold to a buyer in the United States in 2005. This is the second batch of cultural relics Han has helped bring back from overseas since 2005. Eight months earlier, Han also saw to it that a 27-ton stone coffin from the Tang Dynasty arrived safely at the Shaanxi History Museum, four years after it was smuggled out of the country. It was the first time China took back an ancient relic of such large weight and size, as well as of such high cultural value, Han said. The policeman, standing 1.88 meters tall, played on the Hebei provincial basketball team from 1980 to 1990. After helping his team win its only national basketball championship in 1990, Han retired and came to Xian, where his girlfriend lived, and became a policeman. In March 2005, Han joined the heritage protection department of the citys public security bureau. During the investigation of a tomb robbery in February 2006, Han and his team accidentally found out about the sarcophagus. They seized a computer from a suspects house containing a number of pictures taken of the relic and local archaeologists soon identified what it was -- a sarcophagus stolen from the tomb of Tang Dynasty empress Wu Huifei (AD 699-737) in Xian. We found that the criminal group was well organized with a clear division of labor. It was a large criminal gang with more than 10 members separately responsible for the excavation, sale, repair, trafficking and smuggling of relics, Han recalled. The group had been in Xian and (nearby) Xianyang for a long time robbing a number of ancient tombs. On Feb 13, 2006, Hans team successfully busted the tomb-robbing gang, arresting 13 suspects and seizing a large number of tomb excavation tools. Confronted with a large amount of evidence, the suspects confessed to stealing the relics and selling them to the United States, Han said. Han and his team were rewarded by the Ministry of Public Security and Xian Public Security Bureau. But Han continued his effort on the case, trying to trace the smuggled relics. We sent the materials about the stolen sarcophagus to Interpol, and domestic and international non-governmental organizations keen on Chinese heritage protection, Han said. Later in July 2007, we learned the rare relic was in the hands of an antiques dealer in the United States. With the help of a connection in the US, they contacted the businessman and asked for the relic back, telling him they would seek help from Interpol if necessary. After three rounds of negotiations, he agreed to unconditionally return the relic to China, Han said. Over the past five years, Han and his team have successfully cracked more than 50 serious cases and retrieved some 2,300 ancient relics. The number of relics we seized over the past five years is more than the total during the period from 1949 to 1995, Han said. He said this suggests the pillaging of Chinese antiques is getting more serious, as thieves, driven by a thriving global market for the relics, loot and smuggle artifacts to sell in foreign countries. This is especially true in a city like Xian with a history of more than 3,000 years. Xian has been attracting relic robbers and smugglers, as it served as the capital city for 13 dynasties spanning more than 2,000 years of history, Han said. There are thousands of imperial and high-ranking official tombs under its ground, and as many ancient buildings and other relics above, the officer added. On the other hand, Han continued, the country is working hard to protect its cultural relics and trace its looted and smuggled relics. For example, Han said, the return of the above two Tang Dynasty relics couldnt have been possible had the country not signed agreements with the US and 12 other countries imposing import restrictions on relics. These agreements have allowed us to trace our smuggled relics through legal means, Han said. With only 17 members in his team, Han said he feels as much responsibility as pressure at work, considering the large number of relics the city boasts. But to protect the heritage left by our ancestors is our sacred mission and responsibility, he said. Victor Cruz Super Bowl Jersey .

Tweet CALGARY -- Thousands of fans poured into Spectator Plaza at McMahon Stadium on Sunday to take part in fun games, good music and delicious food in preparation for the 2011 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic between the Flames and Montreal Canadiens. The Northeast parking lot had a festival atmosphere as mostly Flames fans -- and even a few Canadiens fans -- partied it up before going inside for the 4 p.m. MT game. The cover band This Side Up provided the music, playing the hits of Guns N Roses, Green Day and other popular rock bands. Fans stood in lines that were about 25-50 people long in the chilly temperatures to test their hockey skills at various booth. There was also air hockey battles, free coffee from Tim Hortons, and a booth where fans could shoot into a dryer the same way Sidney Crosby did as a child. Darcy Peters, a Calgary resident who was wearing enough Saskatchewan Roughriders gear to make Flames defenseman Robyn Regehr blush, clipped 2-of-4 targets at the XM shootout accuracy booth. "Its awesome. Theres so mmany people out here even though how cold it is," Peters said. Hakeem Nicks Youth Jersey. Did Peters catch any flak for wearing his bright-green Roughriders gear so close to the home of the Calgary Stampeders? "I know its dangerous," Peters said. "Ive only been threatened a couple of times. But I had a couple of high-fives." Canadiens fans were probably outnumbered by about 30-to-1 at Spectator Plaza, but the ones who were there didnt lack for any enthusiasm. Mo Safadi, a Calgary native, wore his throwback Rocket Richard jersey and proudly waved a giant Habs flag as he walked around. "Im here all in good fun, here to support my time," Safadi said. Safadi was with his brother, Sid, who went the other way and grew up a Flames fan. "Maybe Ill rub it in to my brother. The only person Ill scrap is him later on in the confines of the backyard," Mo said with a laugh. How did it happen where two boys growing up in the same house ended up liking completely different teams? "Im the smart one," Sid quipped. Follow Dave Lozo on Twitter: @DaveLozo Eli Manning Jersey.
