This essay considers the ways in which women used cosmetics to create racial identities in early modern England, a nation that, throughout the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, was increasingly defining itself through contact with foreign peoples. It argues that just as blackface performances by actors on early modern stages worked to fuse blackness with racial difference in the English imagination, so too did the whiteface cosmetic practices of women in daily life promote a notion of white English identity that would eventually be embraced by both sexes. Since a number of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century theories explicitly linked cosmetic practices to racial difference and since many of the products women applied to their skins were foreign products, women who used make-up also encoded anxieties about race-mingling and cross-cultural contact in their complexions. Thus, discourses about the cosmetic practices of both women and foreign peoples in plays, poems, anatomical texts, travelogues, conduct books, and pamphlet literature of the time exposed color as an unreliable (yet often still desirable) marker of race, class, and moral truth.

Statistically summarizing and presenting grain-size distribution (GSD) data would appear to be a simple, even mundane task, but actually presents subtle nontrivial challenges. The authors are to be commended for bringing this to the attention of the geotechnical community. The goal of summarizing GSD information in a soil characteristics database will also be a useful outcome. Perhaps because of the hidden difficulties in concisely characterizing such data, the geotechnical community invented their own way of presenting GSDs long ago. To some extent I feel that this paper represents a continued divergence from available approaches.

Furthermore, it was after discussions with Briarwood Homes that the restoration of the carriage house and of the shoreline was undertaken, which has added another wonderful site to the beautiful shoreline. This area is open to the public and has, in no way, been \"expropriated\" by Jackson's Point Cottages. [G. Ward] states the area has been \"taken over\" by Jackson's Point Cottages and that, \"certainly no tourist would feel comfortable stopping by\". This is absurd, as will be evident to anyone who cares to go to the site. Finally, I do not know where G. Ward has been for the past 20-plus years. If he or she had been around, he or she would have noted that every spring the owners of the Jackson's Point Cottages have been placing a portable dock in front of their property for the enjoyment of anyone who wanted to use it.

The surrounding land was rehabilitated with large boulders ensuring no trees will spring up to mar the now unimpeded lake view. Although the town plaque indicates this is an historic site, on June 10, the owner added a lengthy dock to the front of the Courting House, stating to passersby, \"This waterfront has belonged to the property for 200 years.\" [G. Ward Jackson]'s Point Cottages residents proceeded to take over both the Courting House and the dock for their own use. Certainly no tourist would feel comfortable stopping by. Is it normal practice for this town to spend taxpayers' money on a site improvement that benefits a private land owner?
