What Is Padel? Meet the 'New Pickleball'

Earlier this year, pickleball—aka tennis’ trendier cousin—made waves online as the latest sports craze to hit the United States. Celebrities are even getting in on the game, like LeBron James, George and Amal Clooney, and the Kardashians. But pickleball's domination may be short lived because there's a growing interest in another net-based sport called padel (pronounced ‘puh-dell’) that's poised to give it some competition.

Already popular in Spain and Latin American countries, padel originated in Mexico in 1969. Today, over 25 million people across 90 countries play padel, making it one of the fastest-growing sports in the world. Fortunately, you don't need a passport to play.

In the latest episode of What the Wellness, Tausi Insider’s Ella Dove visits Padel Haus, a spacious club nestled in the south Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn that caters to the sport. Having just opened its doors this past summer, Padel Haus is the first club of its kind in New York City, and while it's only been operating since June, it's so popular, that Padel Haus has plans to open more locations in Long Island and Manhattan.

As with all unfamiliar activities, trying a new sport can be intimidating, but for Dove, padel turned out to be less challenging—and more rewarding—than anticipated. “It felt like it was pretty easy to pick up, and I feel like it was great cardio,” she says. “There are a lot of places to spend your money on a workout these days; why not learn a new sport while you’re at it?”

Ready to hit the court? Play the video above to get an exclusive peek inside Padel Haus, learn the rules, and see the game in action.

An Existentialist Guide to Feeling Nothing

I recently watched “ the greatest film of all time ,” and the most boring one. In retrospect, the title alone should have been a sufficient warning: Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles . Alas, I’m old enough to be a bit nostalgic about massive telephone address books. And massive it is. Clocking over 200 minutes, Chantal Akerman's 1975 dreary drama follows three days in the monotonous routine of Jeanne, a widow, a mother, and a prostitute. I watched Jeanne’s autopilot existence, until, staring at her back as she washes dishes, I decided to fast-forward a couple of minutes, only to discover she was still at it. And Jeanne is equally thorough when she’s busy baking, cleaning, folding laundry, or shining her son’s shoes. She speaks so scarcely and mechanically, that it’s impossible to detect any emotion or volition beyond her carefully controlled chores . Watching Jeanne Dielman is what the word “painstaking” was invented for. Chantal...

What Are SQL Stored Procedures and How Do You Create Them?

Image
Stored procedures: like functions for your SQL. A stored procedure is a batch of SQL statements created and stored on a database. You can reuse a stored procedure over and over again. A stored procedure can accept parameters, run a query, and return results. Many users can call a stored procedure and different applications can call it with different parameter values. What Are the Benefits of Using Stored Procedures? Apart from allowing multiple users and applications to reuse it, a stored procedure has other benefits. It is easy to modify. You can change a stored procedure when necessary and these updates will be reflected for all users. Furthermore, you don’t need to redeploy your application when you modify the stored procedure. It reduces network traffic because the server only passes the procedure’s name over the network and not the entire query. It improves database security since users don’t have direct access to tables.
