  Benjamin Graham - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Graham, who was of Jewish descent and whose original last name was Grossbaum, was born in London and his family emigrated to the United States when he was one year old.
Graham said that the stock investor is neither right nor wrong because others agreed or disagreed with him; he is right because his facts and analysis are right.
Graham was critical of the corporations of his day for obfuscated and irregular financial reporting that made it difficult for investors to discern the true state of the business's finances.

 Ben Graham (football) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ben Graham (born November 2, 1973) is a former Australian rules football player and currently on the roster of the New York Jets National Football League (NFL) team.
Graham was noted for his long kicking (in particular his expertise at the torpedo punt), and could play at both ends of the ground as a key position player.
Graham was renowned for his long, accurate kicking, and in 2004 he surprised many in Australia when he retired from Australian rules football to pursue a career as a punter in the United States National Football League.

 Australian punter masters American football — JSCMS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Ben Graham, the 31-year-old punter from Melbourne, Australia, is on a one-year contract with the New York Jets.
Graham, who was 30 at the time the Jets gave him the contract, said he was at first concerned about starting a new career at a relatively late age for sporting life.
Graham said that like his predecessor Bennett he was pleased to be able to show his new American teammates the drop punt, a specialized Australian kicking style, which he said allowed the ball to hang longer in the air and provided greater accuracy than the traditional NFL spiral kick.

 Ben Graham - Punter From Down Under | NEWS | NFLPLAYERS.COM
Graham retired after a successful career in the AFL with the Geelong Cats last year, and the Jets signed him to a free-agent contract in January.
Graham is still adjusting to the size of the balls used in the NFL compared to those used in Australia.
Graham's punts generally have tremendous hang-time and the technique he uses - he kicks across the ball - causes it to go end-over-end and then spiral down at returners with a unique backspin.

 Benjamin Graham -- The Father of Value Investing
Graham argued that even with the best research, investors will never know all there is to know about a company.
Graham made his fortune by buying businesses that were so battered and neglected that they sold for less than the value of their working capital (calculated as current assets minus current liabilities).
Graham's rationale was that small companies have far more trouble dealing with economic downturns, so it is best to invest in larger companies.

 Ben Graham: Lessons from the greatest investor ever - Jun. 16, 2003
Graham was Buffett's teacher, his boss, his friend and his intellectual hero.
Graham saw traders make the same mistake with auto stocks in 1919, radio and utility stocks in 1929 and electronics stocks in the 1960s.
An investor, adds Graham, uses "thorough analysis" to test whether a stock or bond or fund "promises safety of principal and a satisfactory return." That's an and, not an or, definition: You must study an investment thoroughly, and it must have minimal risk of massive loss, and its potential return must be realistic.

The performance of each year's Graham stocks, the performance of the S&P500 (as tracked by the SPY exchange-traded fund) and the difference between the two is shown in Table 1.
In fact, an investor who bought each year's Graham stocks, sold, and then bought the next crop of stocks would have gained 369% (or 38% annually**) whereas a buy and hold investment in SPY units would have actually lost 5%.
Graham first described his method for defensive investors in his book The Intelligent Investor, which has been in bookstores for more than fifty years.

 ASNE - A tribute to leadership: Katharine Graham by Ben Bradlee   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Katharine Graham's first leadership moment for me will always be her decision in 1963 to take the future of The Washington Post into her own hands after the tragic loss of her husband.
Her lawyers were telling her that we couldn't publish because a federal judge had already found that the New York Times, in the New York Times case, the Pentagon Papers did in fact represent a threat to national security.
Few of her fellow publishers, especially those in smaller metropolitan areas, thought that this woman, whose pressroom was only a few blocks from the headquarters of the AFL-CIO, and she was probably the least experienced publisher any of them knew, few of them thought she would risk a strike.

 Amazon.co.uk: The Intelligent Investor: Books: Benjamin Graham   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Since its original publication in 1949, Benjamin Graham's book has remained the most respected guide to investing, due to his timeless philosophy of "value investing", which helps protect investors against the areas of possible substantial error and teaches them to develop long-term strategies with which they will be comfortable down the road.
Graham's text is solid, a little heavy, sometimes a little out of date, and some of his tables a bit user-unfriendly; but no matter: it is the timeless lessons he teaches that matter.
He later added a perspective on stock markets and human psychology that Graham did not have: Brand names which are attached to quality products and services will tend to outperform the market, especially when they have the potential to expand their geographical distribution around the world and to add new products.

 George Graham Reviews Ben Winship's "One Shoe Left"
Idaho resident Ben Winship has been a member of Loose Ties for some years, and like Tim O'Brien has taken increasingly to writing, and creating some very good songs.
Ben Winships's new album One Shoe Left, is an excellent example of what I suppose could be called the Rocky Mountain New Acoustic style.
Winship is a fine singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose articulate compositions are further enhanced by the first-rate arrangements that use some of the instrumentation of bluegrass, but with a laid back, almost funky style.
