Islanders coach misses opener
Updated: January 19, 2013, 10:36 PM ETAssociated Press
UNIONDALE, N.Y. -- New York Islanders coach Jack Capuano missed the season opener against the New Jersey Devils "due to medical reasons."
The team made the announcement about 25 minutes before the game at the Nassau Coliseum.
Following the Islanders' 2-1 loss to the Devils, an Islanders spokesperson said Capuano had been admitted to Long Island Jewish Hospital and was expected to rejoin the team later this week.
The team did not have an updated diagnosis on Capuano's condition.

Campus Quality:
there's not another school like this one. The students are great, The facilities are great. The staff is great, The curriculum is great. The only down fall is the things to do outside of class. extracurricular is very limited.
Online Courses:
There is no online courses that I'm aware of here.
Academic Flexibility:
They are always great for helping with anything you come to them for. It does not have to be a certain teacher or councilor either. They will all lead you in the right direction. I don't know about transferring because I didn't transfer any credits. I'm sure they would though.
Campus Resources:
Labs are wonderful and there is always more than enough computers to use. every building has wireless access. The wireless seems to be real fast as well. you get unlimited black and white prints and so many color prints each semester at no charge. That makes it wonderful.
Campus Resources:
There is nothing for athletics that I have seen. the student centers and activities are great. The school tries to have get together for students to eat and socialize which I thought was nice.
Tuition & Financial Aid:
You would always like for things to be less expensive but the materials and supplies you get are top notch. I cant say I am upset with the cost but it does make it hard at times. The financial aid process was smooth, They helped me through the process and answered all questions I had to ask. If I was to offer a tip it would be to make sure you apply for the scholarships the school offers. I missed the deadline because of enrolling at the last minute. That is my only regret.
Academic Experience:
The variety of academics offered are all similar related. With the exception of the medical field. This makes it nice because a Film major student can work with a student that's majoring in make up effects. It gives a feel of true life working in the field of your profession and others. the registration process is done for you once you chose your desired path or career you want to obtain. Once again the professors are the best in the business. They all have real world experience in what they teach so if you ask about something beyond what is in the book they are excited to teach you.
Academic Experience:
There isn't another school like this one that I am aware of. There is so much hands on. You learn from the best teachers there are to offer. They give you a fair amount of workload but not to much that I have seen. There are internship opportunities for those that qualify, and there are always job postings for part time work for students that need the extra cash.
Career Services:
The career services is excellent here. They try to make sure you are prepared when you graduate to get a job. they help with mock interviews, portfolio reviews and so much more. They go above and beyond but it is ultimately up to the student to take advantage of it.
Student Body:
There are all types of people in my school, I even have a student from France it my classes. everyone gets along great. We all are on the same path, so there is so much we all have in common with each other. Race, religion, rich, or poor. none of that matters here. not that I have seen anyways.
Overall Experience:
I love this school, There is not a lot to do in the town, but it keeps your attention on your work. The staff is always more than willing to help you, No matter what the problem may be. All the class rooms are very nice and clean. The teachers are the best in the field and they truly care about your success. I would recommend this school to anyone that asked me about it.
Career Services:
Career Services at this school are a joke. They do not help any students at all. If they do send you job prospects they are usually minimal wage jobs, and jobs that have no merit in the field you studied. Upon graduating, they offered us a job painting faces at a local fair for minimal wage. I didn't pay $40,000 to paint faces. Every student I have talked to who has graduated cannot find work in their field, even if they moved to California. Just about every student is stuck working a minimal wage job and living at home with their parents.
Online Courses:
We never really had online courses. We would go online to research certain subjects, but that's about it.
Campus Resources:
It is a very small campus in a rundown town. They offer a computer lab to students. The problem is the printers in the computer lab do not work half the time, and are always being worked on.
Student Body:
The vast majority of this program was made up of students ages 18 to 21. While, their was a few older students, it was mainly a younger crowd. Filled with outcasts, it felt like a lot of the students had no idea what they wanted to do with their life, and had no idea why they were there. It seemed that the ones who were there to learn where shunned by the teachers, but the tattooed, green haired girl who likes to party, received quite a bit of attention. A lot of students would come to class drunk and the teachers would still pass them. Hell, even if you didn't show up, you would still pass this program. It's funny to see a lot of students walk around school parading arrogance and be stuck up, only to get out in the real world and find out they are not as talented as the teachers made them out to be.
Tuition & Financial Aid:
One of my biggest regrets in life is going to this school.
Tuition & Financial Aid:
Outrageous for an associates degree about 40,000$!! no jobs!
Student Body:
mostly high school students who have no idea why they are even there
Campus Quality:
coming apart, disgusting, gross, never clean
Academic Experience:
I was a special effects major in the tom savini program. The teachers were great but the school doesnt care about you or what happens to you after you graduate. Zero job opportunities
Academic Experience:
Schedules came out a day before class started
Career Services:
HORRIBLE placement. They tell you that you have this career services center to look forward to, but they do nothing for you. ZERO. When you graduate. They count any job you get afterwards like at a super market as "placement", so they tell you they have 70% placement, which is bs. YOU WILL NOT get a job, especially if you are in the Tom Savini Program. They don't even try to place you, and even if you move to California, the jobs prospects are nowhere to be found. bad choice, wish I never would've done it. None of my classmates have jobs either
Campus Resources:
Monessen is a run down steel town with nothing to do. It is basically a dangerous slum, no place for students. Drug ridden, old, rotting city. Horrible campus. Not safe.
Campus Resources:
There are TWO printers for every art student at the entire campus and they are constantly broken. The computers are out dated and slow. Access to the computer lab is horrible, with only slim ( 9-5) daylight hours. If you live in one of the slummy dorms there, you have to pay for your own internet from comcast desperately because its not included in the outrageous rent
Campus Resources:
This school unlike many other makeup schools give you an associates degree in specialized business at the end of your schooling, even though there is no type of certification for makeup this gives you an advantage to may other makeup school students and they help you build a very impressive makeup portfolio to take with you upon graduation.

Head trauma is one of the most important clinical issues that not only can be fatal and disabling, requiring long-term treatment and care, but also can cause heavy financial burden. Formation or distribution of free oxygen radicals should be decreased to enable fixing of poor neurological outcomes and to prevent neuronal damage secondary to ischemia after trauma. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a component of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, is a strong antioxidant that plays a role in membrane stabilization. In this study, the role of CoQ10 in the treatment of head trauma is researched by analyzing the histopathological and biochemical effects of CoQ10 administered after experimental traumatic brain injury in rats. A traumatic brain-injury model was created in all rats. Trauma was inflicted on rats by the free fall of an object of 450 g weight from a height of 70 cm on the frontoparietal midline onto a metal disc fixed between the coronal and the lambdoid sutures after a midline incision was carried out.
In the biochemical tests, tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were significantly higher in the traumatic brain-injury group compared to the sham group (p < 0.05). Administration of CoQ10 after trauma was shown to be protective because it significantly lowered the increased MDA levels (p < 0.05). Comparing the superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels of the four groups, trauma + CoQ10 group had SOD levels ranging between those of sham group and traumatic brain-injury group, and no statistically significant increase was detected. Histopathological results showed a statistically significant difference between the CoQ10 and the other trauma-subjected groups with reference to vascular congestion, neuronal loss, nuclear pyknosis, nuclear hyperchromasia, cytoplasmic eosinophilia, and axonal edema (p < 0.05).
Neuronal degenerative findings and the secondary brain damage and ischemia caused by oxidative stress are decreased by CoQ10 use in rats with traumatic brain injury.
1 Background
Head trauma is one of the most important clinical issues that not only can be fatal and disabling, requiring long-term treatment and care, but also can cause heavy financial burden. It ranks fourth among all the causes of death [1]. Brain injury secondary to trauma consists of the primary damage formed by the direct effect of forces faced and the subsequent secondary damage formed by the sequential reactions of various metabolic events [2-7].
A huge part of the secondary brain damage is induced by lipid peroxidation caused by free oxygen radicals released due to impairment of the balance between the various antioxidant mechanisms occurring after brain trauma.
The formation or distribution of free oxygen radicals should be decreased to enable the fixing of poor neurological outcomes and to prevent neuronal damage secondary to ischemia after trauma [2-8]. It is assumed that the antioxidant defense system cannot completely neutralize the free oxygen radicals occurring in ischemic tissues, particularly after reperfusion [6]. Agents inhibiting free oxygen radicals have also been reported to improve poor neurological outcomes in the central nervous system after trauma or ischemia by their therapeutic effects [2-9].
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a component of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, is a strong antioxidant playing a role in membrane stabilization [10]. Experimental studies have found that CoQ10 is effective in the treatment of ischemia-reperfusion injury [11,12]. Various studies have also shown that CoQ10 inhibits lipid peroxidation and is as effective as alpha-tocopherol against free oxygen radicals; moreover, tissue levels of CoQ9 and CoQ10decrease after transient cerebral ischemia [11-13]. CoQ10 has also been reported to decrease brain lactate levels and lessen the diameter of ischemic lesions in animal models [14-16].
In this study, the role of CoQ10 in the treatment of head trauma was researched by analyzing the histopathological and biochemical effects of CoQ10 administered to rats after experimental traumatic brain injury.
2 Methods
2.1 Animals
The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the School of Medicine, University of Karaelmas. A total of 28 Wistar albino adult male rats, weighing 350-400 g on average, were used in this study. This animal study was conducted in the Central Experimental and Clinical Research Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, University of Karaelmas. All the rats were placed in a room maintained at 22-25°C, with appropriate humidity and a 12-hour light cycle, and were provided with sufficient fluids and feed.
2.2 Traumatic Brain Injury
A moderate brain-injury model, described by Marmarou et al. [17] and modified by Uçar et al. [18], was applied for head trauma to become a closed one and lead to reproducible brain injury. Anesthesia under spontaneous respiration was enabled with intraperitoneal administration of 50 mg/kg body weight ketamine hydrochloride (Ketalar, 50 mg/ml, 10 ml vial, Pfizer İlaçları Ltd., Istanbul) and 10 mg/kg body weight xylazine hydrochloride (Rompun, 2% solution, 50 cc vial, Bayer-Türk İlaç Ltd., Istanbul). The rats were placed in a prone position on the table. A midline incision was made on the head, and the coronal and lambdoid sutures were placed. A metallic disc of 10-mm diameter and 3-mm thickness was fixed to the cranium using bone wax between the two sutures and in the midline. Trauma was applied at the point where the metal disc was placed in the midline. A lead object weighing 450 g was allowed to fall freely from a height of 70 cm through a copper tube onto the metal disc over the skulls of the rats.
2.3 Experimental Groups
The rats were divided into four equal groups. For rats in the sham group, a scalp incision was made (G1). A traumatic brain injury was induced in the rats of the G2, G3, and G4 groups. Rats in the G3 group were administered 2 ml of 0.9% NaCl (physiologic saline) immediately after trauma and at the 24th hour by gavage. The rats in the G4 group were administered CoQ10 at a dose of 10 mg/kg immediately after trauma and at the 24th hour by gavage.
All the rats were anesthetized with the above-mentioned agents at the 48th hour after trauma, and their brains were extracted immediately without any damage. Samples of neural tissue were obtained by excising the left frontoparietal lobes from the boundary of the interhemispheric fissure and were subjected to biochemical analyses. The remaining parts of the brains were maintained in formaldehyde solution for pathological analyses.
2.4 Biochemical Procedures
Tissue malondialdehyde measurement
Tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) was measured by high-performance liquid chromatography using Immundiagnostik (Bansheim, Germany) kits on a 10% homogenate of the tissue in 50-mmol Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4). Sample separation was conducted with an analytical column (Phenomenex, USA). The mobile phase was injected into the system at a velocity of 1.0 ml/min with the help of an isocratic pump. Measurements were conducted using a fluorescence detector fitted in a Zivak Technologies apparatus under wavelengths of excitation and emission of 515 and 553 nm, respectively. The MDA concentrations were evaluated as nmol/g tissue divided by the tissue weight in grams.
Tissue superoxide dismutase activity measurement
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) was measured by the method of Sun et al. [19] using 10% tissue homogenate in Tris buffer. The method is based on the principle that the reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) is inhibited by the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system, which acts as a superoxide generator. Inhibition percentage was calculated using the following formula:
Sample absorbances were measured in a Shimadzu UV-1601 spectrophotometer at 560 nm. One unit of SOD was defined as the amount of enzyme causing 50% inhibition in the rate of NBT reduction. SOD activity was expressed as units per milligram protein.
Paraoxonase measurement
Serum paraoxonase (PON) activities were measured as per the method of Eckerson et al. [20]. This method is based on the measurement of the rate of hydrolysis of paraoxon by the PON enzyme to form p-nitrophenol. Serum PON enzyme activity, in units of IU/L, was calculated by measuring the absorbance changes at 412 nm caused by the p-nitrophenol formed between the zero and the fifth minutes; the molar extinction coefficient of p-nitrophenol, 16.900 mol-1 cm-1, was used for the calculations [20].
2.5 Histopathological Procedures
The brain parenchymal tissues of all rats in all the groups were embedded in paraffin and fixed with 10% buffered formalin for 24 hours. Using a microtome, 5- μm-thick serial sections were taken from the paraffin blocks and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) for routine histopathological observations. Sections of all tissue samples were observed under a light microscope (Leica, DMLS) in the Department of Pathology, Faculty of Medicine, Zonguldak Karaelmas University.
A semiquantitative scoring system, ranging between zero and three, was used for grading both the histopathological changes (vascular congestion, intraparenchymal hemorrhage, inflammation, neuronal loss, and gliosis) and the neuronal degenerative signs (nuclear pyknosis, nuclear hyperchromasia, cytoplasmic eosinophilia, and axonal edema) in the brain tissues of all histological samples. Nine different parameters assessed histopathologically were scored as follows: 0: absent; 1: mild; 2: moderate; and 3: dense/common.
2.6 Statistical Analysis
Data were evaluated in computerized media using the software SPSS 11.5. Results are presented as frequency, median, minimum, and maximum values. Kruskal-Wallis variance analysis was used for comparison of the biochemical values among groups. In case any difference was found, double-group comparisons were carried out according to Conover. Likelihood ratio and Fisher exact chi-square test were conducted for comparing the results of the histopathological assessment; p values less than 0.05 were considered significant.
3 Results
3.1 Biochemical findings
The biochemical results of the groups are presented in Table 1. The MDA levels were increased, with statistical significance (p < 0.05) in the G2 group compared with G1. In G4, to which CoQ10 was administered immediately after trauma, a statistically significant decrease (p < 0.05) in the MDA levels was noticed when compared to G2; moreover, this level was less than that in G1. The MDA level was additionally found to be higher in G3 than in G2, without any statistical significance. SOD levels were significantly lower in G2 and G3 than in G1 (p < 0.05). Comparing the SOD levels of the four groups G4 to G1, G4 had SOD levels ranging between those of G1 and G2, and no statistically significant increase was detected. In terms of the levels of the PON enzyme, no statistical difference was found between G2, G3, and G4 compared with G1.
Table 1. MDA, SOD and paraoxonase alterations among groups (median, minimum-maximum)
3.2 Histopathological Findings
The parenchymal features of the white and grey matter, the neuronal morphology, and the vascular structures were assessed to be normal in the G1 samples. In the histopathological samples of G2 and G3, marked edema in the white and grey matter, in addition to vascular congestion were observed in the trauma-applied brain parenchyma tissue, along with neuronal injury findings, including hyperchromasia in neuronal nuclei, nuclear pyknosis, cytoplasmic eosinophilic degeneration, and axonal edema. Focal neuronal loss and gliotic zones were seen in areas consistent with the trauma site. Histopathological findings of the G2 and G3 groups were different from those of G1, with statistical significance in terms of parenchymal congestion, neuronal loss, gliosis, nuclear pyknosis, nuclear hyperchromasia, cytoplasmic eosinophilia, and axonal edema (p < 0.05). Again, no significant difference was observed between the sham group (G1) and the other three groups (G2, G3, and G4) with reference to intraparenchymal hemorrhage and inflammation.
When comparing the histopathological samples of G4 to those of G2 and G3, a statistically significant difference was detected in terms of vascular congestion, neuronal loss, nuclear pyknosis, nuclear hyperchromasia, cytoplasmic eosinophilia, and axonal edema (p < 0.05). Moreover, the intensity of the signs of neuronal degeneration in G4 was obviously less than those in G2 and G3. However, no statistically significant difference was observed among the three groups (G2, G3, and G4) in terms of gliosis, intraparenchymal hemorrhage, and inflammation (Table 2 and Figure 1).

E, F: G4; axonal edema and moderate reactive and degenerative changes in neuronal structures are seen (H&E, E: × 100; F: × 400).
4. Discussion
Head trauma may lead to primary and secondary damages in neural tissue. Secondary factors that have been shown to develop subsequent to traumatic brain injury are ischemia, cerebral edema, and free oxygen radical-based lipid peroxidation [2-7]. Lipid peroxidation leads to dysfunction of membrane because of changes in the lipid structure of the membrane. Secondary cell injury is observed subsequent to inflammation, edema, chemotaxis, and increased vascular permeability with the development of free oxygen radicals, influencing other components of the cell [21-23].
Antioxidants inhibit lipid peroxidation by preventing the peroxidative chain reaction and/or picking up the reactive-oxygen derivatives. Endogenous antioxidants include mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase, SOD, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione-S-transferase, hydroperoxidase, and CoQ. CoQ10 is the only fat-soluble antioxidant synthesized endogenously, and it is present in tissues in the active form (reduced) independently from the diet [24].
The method described by Marmarou et al. [17] and modified by Uçar et al. [18] was used as the trauma model in our study. We designed the model to analyze the protective effect of CoQ10 on neuronal damage. In the method of Marmarou et al. [17], the area between the coronal and lambdoid sutures was targeted; a diffuse brain injury was caused by allowing an object of 450 g to fall freely from an altitude of two meters through a plexiglass tube. A possible fracture of the calvarium was prevented by a stainless steel plate stuck over the calvarium, similar to the method of our application. In the study of Marmarou et al., of the 54 rats, mortality and cranium fracture were found in 44% and 12.5%, respectively. We applied the moderate head-trauma model described by Uçar et al. [18] because Marmarou et al.'s model has both high mortality and risk of posttraumatic seizure. Accordingly, we arranged for an object of 450 g to fall through a plexiglass tube from an altitude of 70 cm onto target points around the coronal suture. The total scheduled number of rats in the trauma groups was 21 in our study. Among these, four rats died of trauma, and therefore, four additional rats were exposed to trauma and included into the study. Hence, a total of 25 rats were subjected to trauma and four (16%) died, while no cranium fracture was detected in any rat.
CoQ10, whose use in many neurological, cardiac, oncological, and immunological diseases has been studied, has been shown to be protective against different forms of tissue damage [25-28]. However, the efficacy of CoQ10 in a moderate head-trauma model has not been analyzed before.
Administration of a 10 mg/kg dose immediately after the trauma, which we applied, has been reported to have a protective effect against ischemic injury in experimental models, such as cerebral ischemia, tissue ischemia-reperfusion damage, and spinal cord trauma [12,26,29-32]. Li et al. [33], in a different study, showed that the administration of CoQ10 three hours after focal and global ischemia, which they formed by vessel occlusion in rats, does not have a protective effect against neural injury [33].
Ostrowski [12] induced cerebral ischemia by administrating intraventricular endothelin to rats in his study. He showed that SOD activity increased significantly in samples obtained by killing the subjects after he injected 10 mg/kg CoQ10 intraperitoneally at the end of the 24th hour. His interpretation of this result was that CoQ10 would decrease cerebral ischemic injury if the endogenous SOD activity was higher [12].
Erol et al. [29] found in their ischemia-reperfusion model that MDA levels were significantly lower in the group in which they applied a single dose of 10 mg/kg CoQ10 intraperitoneally than that in control group. They concluded that this could be attributable to CoQ10, which had an antioxidant effect by lowering lipid peroxidation.
Kerimoğlu et al. [32] analyzed the efficacy of CoQ10 on experimental spinal cord injury induced by placing extradural aneurysm clips at the T4-5 level in rats, and they found that the SOD activity of only the trauma-applied group was significantly lower than that of the control group (p < 0.05). Although the MDA levels were less than those in the control group, the result was not considered statistically significant. Again, although edema was significantly more frequent in the control groups compared to others during histopathological assessment, no statistical difference was observed in their study between the methylprednisolone, CoQ10, and methylprednisolone + CoQ10 groups in terms of edema and hemorrhage.
Herein, we measured (1) the levels of MDA, one of the products of lipid peroxidation, for evaluating oxidative stress, and (2) the activities of SOD and PON, for analyzing the antioxidant capacity. A statistically significant reduction (p < 0.05) in the MDA levels was seen in the group administered CoQ10 immediately after trauma (G4) compared to the group to which only trauma was applied (G2), and even lower results than that in the sham group (G1) were detected. When evaluating the results of SOD, an endogenous antioxidant enzyme functioning as a member of the defense mechanism against oxidative stress, values in the G4 group were found to be similar to that of G1, although that did not reach any statistical significance. These findings suggest that CoQ10 is a neuronal protector against oxidative damage in traumatic brain injury and that it functions by inhibiting lipid peroxidation. When assessing the data of PON, an antioxidant enzyme associated with the high-density lipoprotein structure, no difference was detected among the different groups.
From the results of our histomorphological assessment, it has been concluded that in rats, administration of CoQ10 after traumatic brain injury (G4 group) reduces vascular congestion, neuronal loss, nuclear pyknosis, nuclear hyperchromasia, cytoplasmic, and axonal edema in a statistically significant manner when compared to the G2 and G3 groups (p < 0.05). Moreover, by administering CoQ10, neuronal degenerative findings were significantly less intense (p < 0.05).
5. Conclusions
The results of this study suggest that CoQ10 support immediately after brain injury prevents lipid peroxidation due to the antioxidant activity of CoQ10; CoQ10 administration is also effective in protecting against secondary neuronal damages after trauma. However, the main limitation of our study is that we investigated only the short-term effects of CoQ10 in traumatic brain injury. We cannot conclude whether CoQ10 causes any neuroprotection as a long-term effect. Therefore, more studies should be carried out to evaluate the short- and long-term effects of CoQ10 in secondary neuronal damages after trauma and to elucidate both its exact mechanism of action and clinical efficacy.

The purpose of this essay is to chip away at this serious conceptual gap. Until this gap is filled, experiential education will fall significantly short of its potential.

General Mills (GIS) is one of the leading consumer foods companies. They are the maker and seller of famous brands such as Cheerios, Wheaties, Total, Chex, Betty Crocker, Bisquick, Hamburger Helper, Yoplait yogurt and Progresso soups. The food business has been good for General Mills as it has allowed them to pay yearly increasing dividends to their shareholders as they have increased their dividend for 9 years in a row.
Dividend Growth and Current Yield
General Mills currently pays a dividend of $0.33 per quarter for a $1.32 annual dividend. At the close of market on Friday, February 1st GIS's price per share was $42.13. This gives the stock a current dividend yield of 3.13% (1.32/42.13). Typically I look for a dividend yield of at least 2.5% so I would be satisfied with this dividend yield from GIS.
In 2003, General Mills payed an annual dividend amount of $0.55 per share. The dividend trend has been up each year as it now pays $1.32 annually per share. This gives GIS a 10 year annual compound dividend growth rate of 9.15%. More recently the annual dividend growth rate was 8.93% for 2011 to 2012 and 8.2% from 2012 to 2013.
Earnings Per Share Growth
General Mills had a 2002 earnings per share (EPS) of $0.85 and a 2012 EPS of $2.56. Over the 10 years their earnings per share have been consistently climbing upward at a strong rate. I especially like seeing that General Mills was able to continue earnings growth through the recession years of 2008-2010. General Mills has had a 10 year EPS growth rate of 11.66% which is a great growth rate. More recently General Mills' annual EPS growth rate was 7.83% from 2010 to 2011 and 3.23% from 2011 to 2012. While I would like to see the most recent year EPS growth rate higher, owners of General Mills stock should be pleased with the 11.66% EPS average annual growth rate over the past decade. For 2013, Microsoft has an estimated EPS from Value Line of $2.65. which shows they expect EPS to continue growing although at the slower rate seen in more recent years.
Net Income Growth
Net income has shown the same pattern as EPS from 2002 through 2012. Net Income was 581,000,000 in 2002 and grew to 1,707,300,000 in 2012. This gives GIS a compound annual net income growth rate of 11.38%. More recently GIS had a net income growth rate of 5.12% from 2010 to 2011 and 3.35% growth from 2011 to 2012. While net income has grown well over the past 10 years, the slowing of growth recently may cause some concern for investors. However, net profits are still growing and shall continue to reward owners in the future as long as management can continue getting good results.
Sales Growth
Sales have been growing for General Mills over the past 10 years in a consistent uptrend as well. The compound annual growth rate of sales revenues was 7.68%. While EPS and net profits have been growing around 11%, sales have only been growing at 7.6%. This is of concern for investors because it most likely means that EPS and net profits growth will slow which we have seen in more recent years. Possibly owners of General Mills won't be able to expect spectacular growth rates in the double digits from General Mills in the upcoming years.
Outstanding Shares
Generally I like to see a decreasing trend or at least a consistent balance in the number of outstanding shares of the company. Since 2004, GIS's outstanding share count has been decreasing every single year. Since 2004, they have managed to decrease the number of shares outstanding by a little over 100 million shares. With less shares outstanding, the value of each share still available increases. When a company decreases the number of shares available it means the shares I own will have rights to a greater portion of the companies profits.
Return on Equity Trend
When evaluating a company I look for return on equity to be consistently above 12%. General Mills has had a nice return on equity near or above 20% over the past decade. Maintaining a consistent return on equity shows me that management is doing a good job with shareholders investment.
Current Ratio
Current ratio measures a companies ability to meet short term obligations. General Mills has a 2012 FYE current ratio of 0.96. This means that current assets will be able to cover 96% of current liability obligations. I generally want to see this number be above 1 which General Mills is almost at.
Net Profit to Long Term Debt
This number tells me how many years worth of profits it will take to pay off the current long term debt of the company. I like looking at this metric because it gives me an idea of whether the company has taken on too much debt or not. Generally I look for this number to be less then 5 meaning if the company used all their earnings over the next 5 years they could wipe out all debt. For GIS this net profit to long term debt ratio stands at about 3.6 for 2012. This means General Mills would be able to pay off all long term debt with about three and a half years worth worth of profits. In my opinion General Mills does not have too much debt on their balance sheet.
Dividend Payout Ratio
The dividend payout ratio measures the dividend per share compared to the earnings per share. How much of a companies earnings per share are they paying out to shareholders in the form of a dividend. The past few years GIS has maintained a dividend payout ratio around 40-50%. This tells me that General Mills is paying out around 45% of profits to shareholders and keeping 55% of profits to grow the company and increase shareholder value through share repurchases. I like this payout ratio because it is fairly low and I don't believe General Mills should have any trouble maintaining dividend growth in the future even if the company faces struggles near term.
Price/Earnings Ratio
The P/E ratio is a metric I look at to determine if a companies current stock price is too high or within reason. With the most recent closing market price of $42.13 and most recent EPS of $2.56, MSFT has a current P/E right around 16.5. Typically the market P/E average is right around 14 so compared to the market in whole I might determine GIS to be slightly over valued. Given the slowing growth over the past two years of GIS it may seem the market is pricing GIS a little high.
Looking at GIS's past P/E ratios of the last few years it looks like they have ranged from a high of 20 to a low of 15. During 2010 you would have been able to pick up shares as low as 10 times earnings. The current P/E of 16.5 is at the low end of the range of 15 to 20 which is the range of P/E GIS has traded the majority of time over the past decade. This could be a chance to get in at a valuation in the lower range that the market usually values GIS. Based on the companies performance, I believe the current valuation to be fair depending on your opinion of how GIS will grow earnings going forward.
Return Projections
GIS had EPS of $2.56 in 2012. The past earnings per share growth rate has been roughly around 11% but we calculated a slower growth rate in sales. Therefore I am going to use a more conservative EPS growth rate of 8% over the next 10 years to figure out what 2022 EPS might look like. This gives me an estimated EPS of $5.53 for GIS in 2022.
If GIS is trading at reasonable P/E ratio of 15 in 2022 then it will have a market price of $82.95/share (5.53*15). This will give me an estimated annual growth rate for General Mills of 7% over the next 10 years. If you would be happy with a 7% return over the next 10 years as well as collecting increasing dividends along the way then GIS may be a good investment for you. This is a very rough exercise based on growth estimates that may not come to reality. Actual returns in GIS will vary depending on how well the company increases their earnings and how the market values GIS in the future.
Based on the above analysis I believe General Mills to be a hold at current levels. I think the addition of General Mills to a dividend growth portfolio would provide a solid blue chip company that is an industry leader in the consumer foods market. If you really want to own this company then I would think today's valuation is a good entry point. However, given the slower growth rate of earnings by GIS, I do not feel they would be anything more than an average performer in any portfolio over the next few years at current valuations. This is why I give GIS a hold recommendation. They can provide a solid foundation to dividend growth portfolios but I wouldn't expect anything more than average returns from owning this company.

4 Responses to General Mills Dividend Stock Analysis
I've got a target entry in the $36-37 range. I agree that it's a at an okay price currently, but nothing that is screaming buy. Although there should be consistent DG going forward from a company with predictable growth. If it pulls back to mid to upper $30′s I'd be interested. Nice analysis.
Dan Mac says:
JC I agree I'd also be very interested if GIS had a slight pull back. I think GIS is a solid performer with steady earnings and dividend growth. I especially like the fact that even during the recession they were still able to show increasing earnings. I think GIS would be a solid addition to most portfolios. I'd just prefer a slightly lower price to offer more return possibilities going forward. Thanks for your comments!
Dustin Small says:
Hi Dan, loved your analysis. I agree with you that the recent slowdown in earnings growth is concerning, particularly since revenue growth has not been able to keep up over the past 10 years. Has there been a recent catalyst for the recent slowdown or is it simply due to the revenue-lag alone?
Dan Mac says:
Hey Dustin thanks for the comments. I didn't really have a look into the reasoning behind the recent earnings growth slowdown. I think if you were considering an investment in GIS, then that is definately something to look into to determine if it is just short term pressure or if this is some kind of issue that could have long term effects. I think even with the slowed down growth, GIS can still offer average returns going forward. Personally I think average returns from a blue chip steady company like GIS may be good for a portfolio as I don't see GIS going away in the future. They'll still be here for many years selling their Cheerios and Yoplait and owners can feel good about the long term reliability of the company even if it is just average returns.

If they have a problem they can talk it out and if I have a problem I can talk it out. Someone has to be honest and have good values be on the up and up. I would rather have someone communicate rather than bottle up feeling where their bursting inside but don't say anything. The person I would like to be with has to be comfortable in jeans watching the sunset with a glass of wine or confident enough to be seen in a semi formal event. If I have to wear a coat and tie turn about is fair play. I am looking for a relationship so if you are that person then I hope I peaked your interest.

Escudero hits back at Heart Evangelista's parents
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines – Senator Francis "Chiz" Escudero on Thursday fired back at Heart Evangelista's parents, cautioning them against using their wealth to humiliate him.
In a statement issued in Naga City, Escudero denied the allegations hurled at him by the celebrity's parents and claimed his family is also being affected by the controversy.
"Tama ang sinabi ng isang kolumnista, malayo naman talaga na mas mayaman at mas maraming pera ang mga magulang niya kumpara sa akin. Tama din marahil ang sinabi ng magulang niya, hindi ko kayang tustusan yung luho, yung buhay na binibigay nila sa anak nila. Pero kung ano man ang meron ako, sapat yun para sa akin," he said.
(A columnist was right in saying that I cannot match the wealth of her parents. It may be true what the parents have been saying that I cannot provide a luxurious life that their daughter is currently enjoying. But I make the most of what I have.)
Escudero said he treated Heart and her parents with utmost respect. The parents knew this but still they are keen on "keeping us and apart."
The Team PNoy guest candidate for senator said the controversy is already causing tension in his family.
"Nadadamay na rin ang nanay ko, kamamatay pa lang ng tatay ko at parang pinapalabas na hindi ako pinalaki ng maayos at hindi rin akong tinuruan ng magandang asal," he said.
(The controversy is beginning to affect my mother. My father has just passed away and I'm being made to appear I was not properly brought up and learned no manners.)
He said he is also a parent but he would not hurt others just to prove he care for his children.
And if he would have any conflict with a member of his family, the senator said he would keep it very private.
"Nasasaktan si Heart dito, mahal na mahal kasi niya ang mga magulang niya," he said.
(This is painful for Heart as she loves her parents so much.)
"Pero nasa edad na si Heart. Walang puwedeng magdikta, manghimasok sinuman kung ano ang gagawin at hindi niya gagawin at kung ano ang sasabihin at hindi niya sasabihin, may sarili na siyang pag-iisip at kaisipan," said the senator.
(But Heart is in the right age and mind and she can decide for herself without being influenced by others. No one should interfere in her affairs.)
Saying he was also hurt by the controversy, Escudero urged the public to respect the decision of his girlfriend and refrain from aggravating the dispute by making irresponsible comments.
"Sorry kung kailangan kong magsalita, paumanhin kung kailangan kong magpaliwanag ngayon pero medyo sobra na rin, at sana tama na, sana kung ano man ang gusot na ito maayos at sana hindi na masyadong madami pang madamay at masaktan sa mga nangyayari," he said.

Linux 3.2-rc1 Shouldn't Be "Hugely Scary"
The first release candidate of the Linux 3.2 kernel is now available. There's quite a number of branches and other changes that were merged during the Linux 3.2 window, but Linus says that it shouldn't be "hugely scary." Linus additionally says, "The fact that 3.1 dragged out did mean that this ended up being one of the bigger merge windows, but I'm not feeling *too* nervous about it."

Linux 3.2 Is Still Looking To Be Power Hungry
The PCI subsystem pull for the Linux 3.2 kernel was published on Friday evening. If you were hoping it would rework PCI-E ASPM (Active-State Power Management) to be more like the Windows implementation or for more PCI drivers to be setting the bits directly to support it (effectively white-listing drivers/hardware), it didn't happen yet.

Killing DRM Graphics Cruft With Fire
It seems to be a good time to clean-up the Linux graphics driver stack. After old hardware support was dropped in Mesa in August, more Mesa code was dropped, and most recently the classic ATI R300/R600 drivers are to be killed (this is set to happen this Friday). Now Intel's Daniel Vetter is chopping up some DRM code.

Mountain Lakes Trail - The Mountain Lakes Trail begins at an elevation of 5,200 feet and climbs up the Seldom Creek drainage, crossing the creek over a footbridge, and gradually ascends through meadows and along volcanic outcroppings. From the mixed conifer setting of the trailhead, the scenery gradually changes to higher elevation mountain hemlock/subalpine fir forest. After climbing over 2,000 feet in five miles, the trail meets the Mountain Lakes Loop Trail at an elevation of 7,400 feet. Looking back affords a nice view of Mount McLoughlin in the distance. In this dry, windy, high elevation environment, harsh growing conditions cause trees to grow into stunted and contorted shapes. The practice of minimum impact visitation is required to protect the area.

X.Org Server 1.7.7 To Be Released Soon
While X Server 1.8 has been around for almost one month, Peter Hutterer for now is still maintaining the X.Org Server 1.7 series before turning over to the 1.8 branch in the coming weeks. He's now in the process of preparing to release X.Org Server 1.7.7.

Concerns Over Merging Drivers Back Into The X Server

X Server 1.8 is here. Being developed under a new process, this new X Server from the X.Org project was given a 31 March release date. It wasn't released on Wednesday as planned, but it's coming today -- just two days later. Based upon the sizable delays in earlier X.Org Server releases, this is not bad at all.

With KMS, Now Run Two X Servers Off One GPU
Over the past several weeks there have been a number of new Linux graphics features introduced by David Airlie, a Red Hat employee and long-time X.Org contributer. Last month David began on a project rampage by bringing hybrid graphics to Linux via code he called "vga_switcheroo" to switch between ATI/NVIDIA/Intel GPUs without rebooting the system (though restarting the X.Org Server is needed at this time) that that code has now made its way into the mainline Linux kernel. Last week another David Airlie project was multi-GPU rendering support for Linux that was written as a proof of concept to show a second GPU could render 3D applications onto the screen of the first GPU, regardless of the hardware vendor. This week we now have the ability to run two X.Org Servers for a multi-head setup off a single graphics card.

Luc Modularizes Mesa, DRI Drivers
Last month at the X@FOSDEM meeting in Belgium, Luc Verhaegen gave a talk on cleaning up the Linux graphics driver stack. This talk was met by some that agreed with his views and, well, others that didn't exactly see eye-to-eye with him. He shared with everyone his views on changes that should be made to the Mesa/X.Org/DRM stack, including some greater modularization, in an effort to make the testing / build process easier, drive greater maintainability of drivers, and unifying components by providing more shared libraries and formalizing different APIs.

Proof Of Concept: Open-Source Multi-GPU Rendering!
Now that David Airlie's vga_switcheroo has went upstream in the Linux 2.6.34 kernel that provides hybrid graphics support and delayed GPU switching, David went on to look for something new to work on in his downtime when not busy with tasks at Red Hat. This new work is on GPU offloading / multi-GPU rendering.

X Server 1.7.6 Restores The RECORD Extension
While X Server 1.8 should be out later this month, enough bug-fixes have come along since X Server 1.7.5 (the last scheduled maintenance release) to warrant a new version. Peter Hutterer pushed out the first release candidate for X Server 1.7.6. With X Server 1.7.6 there will be many bug-fixes atop 1.7.5, including this being the first 1.7.x release where the server's RECORD extension is actually working. There's also about a dozen other fixes to the DIX, xselinux, and other areas of the server stack.

Luc Creates X.Org Board of Director Summaries
Last month we reported on issues within the X.Org Foundation that were raised by Luc Verhaegen over the lack of transparency and issues within this crucial organization that backs the development of the X.Org Server. One of the problems expressed was over the lack of minutes that have not been readily available for the X.Org Foundation Board of Director meetings nor any IRC logs. Well, that is now being changed with the meeting logs being published and the IRC information also being published for any interested individuals to tune in to the chat.

XGI Working On Big Linux Patch For Big Feature
XGI's Linux driver was written off as dead back in the summer of 2008 when Ian Romanick who had been working on the open-source XGI Linux driver through his work at IBM had left the company to go join Intel where he now works on Mesa and Intel's open-source 3D stack. XGI Technology really hasn't put out new hardware lately and has been flying under the radar, but this past January a long-time XGI employee began working on this code.

AMD Gets A Seat With The X.Org Foundation
While concerns have been raised about the state of the X.Org Foundation, the 2010 elections have ended and were not extended though it was requested by some X.Org members. The new X.Org Foundation board members include Alex Deucher, Keith Packard, Matthieu Herrb, Matthias Hopf, and Eric Anholt. Alex Deucher had the most votes to be seated and this his first time sitting on the board and now provides some AMD representation where he works on their open-source driver stack and documentation. With Matthias Hopf on the board, Novell GmbH has a say as Egbert Eich of the same Novell X team is no longer serving.

For the past two weeks elections have been going on by X.Org members to elect five people to serve as board of directors for the X.Org Foundation, the formal 501(c)(3) organization that backs the development of the X.Org project. The elections for the board of directors takes place annually replacing four of the eight members each time around, but this year the elections have been particularly interesting. The X.Org Foundation itself isn't in the public spotlight too much and there really isn't much in the way of public communication and involvement outside of this gang of eight. Since the elections started there has been a rather explosive mailing list discussion started by Luc Verhaegen and it has revealed new details about this foundation.

Listen Now: Luc's Heated Talk From X@FOSDEM
The most heated talk this year during FOSDEM in the X.Org development room was certainly the talk by Luc Verhaegen with his ambitions to clean up the Linux graphics driver stack. Building the entire X.Org stack can be a mess and there is certainly areas to improve upon in the development process and making it easier for end-users and others to test out this latest code. Luc's goal for this is to create unified trees for each driver that contain all of the driver-specific code rather than having various bits scattered all over the place.

Talking Radeon GLSL From X@FOSDEM 2010
Last week we provided an update as to our X@FOSDEM 2010 video status. Well, it's still taken some time to get these recordings out there that were taken earlier this month in Brussels, Belgium. While I am back to my normal working schedule, the uploading has been hampered by the file size of these 720p HD recordings. The videos are too long to be hosted on YouTube, we don't have the bandwidth to allocate for these massive video files for non-Premium users, and most of the other video sites out there don't allow video recordings of an hour in length or file sizes greater than 1GB or have a decent Flash Player.

Fifth Stable Update Ends Out X Server 1.7 Series
X Server 1.7 was released back in October with support for X Input 2.0, Multi-Pointer X, and other improvements after having arrived several months late. Since that initial 1.7 release some five months ago there have been new stable updates / point releases made available quite regularly. These updates incorporate bug and security fixes -- some of which work has been back-ported from the current X Server 1.8 code that should be released towards the end of March. X Server 1.7.5, however, was just released and this will likely be the last official X.Org update to the xorg-server 1.7 series.

Preity Zinta is in a spot of trouble. She needs a child to play her in the earlier part of Jahnu Barua's 'Har Pal'. But they can't find the right face or the child.
Preity said: 'The problem is we need a little girl who not only resembles me but also has prominent dimples, and not just on one cheek. We've come across sweet little girls with one dimple. But since God has gifted me with dimples on both cheeks the hunt is on for a miniature Preity with the necessary holes in her cheeks.'
Until the director finds the right face the shooting of the childhood portions is on hold. One option was Ayesha Kapoor from 'Black'.
'My God what a powerhouse performer! She played the blind girl so convincingly. I've worked with the blind and I've seen them move their cornea exactly like Ayesha. But Ayesha's image after 'Black' is too strong. What do we do? I really envy Manisha Koirala. In 'Khamoshi: The Musical' Sanjay Leela Bhansali found a girl who was not only a pint-sized replica of Manisha but also as talented,' the actress said.
