AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A state appeals court has overturned its own ruling and decided "bikini latex clubs" are sexually oriented businesses that are subject to a $5-per-patron state tax.
The Houston-based 1st Texas Court of Appeals ruled Tuesday in a 21-page opinion that latex-clad dancers at such clubs are nude under state law and that therefore the state can tax each patron. In so doing, it vacated its own January ruling that dismissed a lawsuit brought by Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar.

Teddi Mellencamp shares honest postpartum bikini photos
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Teddi Mellencamp looks, well, perfect in most of the photos she shares on her Instagram, and of course, the star is well-dressed and coiffed in episodes of her Bravo reality show. But it turns out the 39-year-old mom of three is just like most moms, because she too has had to work hard to accept her body after baby .
Looking at the photo of the famous mom, one might wonder, Um, what stretch marks? What loose skin? Well, in addition to her post, Mellencamp also bravely shared a video that bared stretch marks on her thighs and loose belly skin.
