I love Dubai!

Here is a headline and excerpt from an article I found on the LA Times website:

Dubai court sentences couple for sex on beach
CAIRO -- A British couple whose drunken escapade led to sex on the beach, tabloid headlines and a clash between Western permissiveness and Islamic values were sentenced today by a Dubai court to three months in prison.Vince Acors and Michelle Palmer were each sentenced to jail, fined $272 for drinking alcohol and ordered to be deported immediately upon leaving prison. The pair were found guilty of having premarital sex after a taxi had picked them up from a Champagne brunch at a five-star hotel and drove them to Jumeirah beach in the United Arab Emirates' most culturally tolerant emirate of Dubai.
