	Ruff - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ruff are migratory, wintering in southern and western Europe, Africa and India.
		These types can be distinguished by their appearence and behaviour: Resident or independent males (84%) have intensely-colored ruffs (fl or chestnut) and stake out and occupy mating territories in the lek.
		If ruff females (which are always non-territorial) are given testosterone implants, they display the male territorial behaviour according to their genotype.

		While profiting from their lessons, Ruff quickly distinguished himself from his teachers by delving into colour, a move that radically challenged the presumed authenticity of the fland-white image on which traditions of documentary photography have long been based.

	Constructing Elizabethan Ruffs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		In the 1580s, a new method of ruff construction became fashionable; the fabric of the ruff was cartridge-pleated and sewn to a neck band.
		Beginning in the 1580s and continuing on to the end of the century, women's ruffs began to be worn differently; rather than encircling the neck as they had in previous years, the front edges of the ruff were pinned to the outer edges of a low, square neckline.
		Making an open ruff is the same as the huge closed cartwheel ruffs, it is merely worn open, though the end pleats could be made slightly shorter (neck to edge measurement).
