This Guidance Note covers the main aspects of landscape design and planning around small sports facilities although the principles apply to all building facilities. For a sports facility to function efficiently it is essential that the design of the landscape and external spaces is considered at the outset. The allocation of sufficient funds to this aspect of the overall design will result in:

• an attractive and inviting environment that people enjoy
• improved long-term appearance of the facility
• reduced running and maintenance costs.

Design briefs for a sports facility must always include the following requirements:

• adequate funds allocated to external works and landscape design
• measures taken to minimise long-term maintenance and repair
• the design promotes safety and security
• the design promotes access by all sections of society
• consideration of the overall shape, colour and form of the buildings, and their surrounds, to create an inviting environment that will attract users

Configure your Server Using the Initial Setup Wizard

The first time you connect to a Snap Server using the browser-based Administration Tool, the Initial Setup Wizard runs. The Initial Setup Wizard consists of several screens that allow you to change the server name, set the date and time, set the administrator password, configure TCP/IP settings for the Ethernet port (Ethernet1), and reclaim storage space that has been reserved in case you want to use Snapshots.

Server Name
The default server name is SNAPnnnnnn, where nnnnnn is the server number. If desired, enter a unique server name of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. In addition to letters and numbers, you can also use a dash (-) between characters, but spaces and underscores (_) are not allowed.

Eating a Healthy Amount During Pregnancy
The number of additional calories you need during pregnancy depends on your stage of pregnancy. During the first trimester, there is no increase in your calorie needs. During the second and third trimesters, an extra 300 calories will cover the increased energy needs of most women. 300 calories is not much!! Choose foods with lots of nutrients to get those extra calories.

Food combinations that contain around 300 calories each:

• One slice of bread with 1 1/2 tbsp. peanut butter & an 8 oz. glass
  of skim milk
• One serving of lasagna without meat
• 1 small regular fast food hamburger
• 1 oz. pretzels, 1 oz. cheddar cheese, and an apple
• 8 oz. cup of fruit flavored yogurt and 1/2 banana
• 1 low-fat fast food milkshake
• A granola bar, 1/3 cup raisins, and a medium size carrot
