KarnaughMap445 is Compatible with Windows® 7
Boolean Algebra assistant program for Electrical Engineering students
Windows and the Windows logo are trademarks of the Microsoft group of companies. Search kmap445 at Windows 7 Compatibility Center |
PlatformsKarnaughMap 445 (kmap445.exe version 4.4.5) is an educational CAD program that runs on Windows® 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows 7. Moreover, kmap445 meets all of the technical requirements to be Compatible with Windows® 7. SimplicityThe primary objective is to help electrical engineering students like you save time and money by becoming a Karnaugh map expert in a manner of minutes. After installing, just click on several check boxes and see the resulting expression. Rest assured that kmap445 comes with a one-page on-line manual. However, being a person who hates reading manuals, I tried very hard to make kmap445 so intuitive that you don't need a manual 90% of the time. OperationAlso known as Karnaugh map solver, calculator, generator, or minimizer, this is an interactive Boolean logic simplification program. Using it is as simple as point and click. The most basic way of entering a design is to click on the Truth table. The cells of the Truth table are linked with the cells of the Karnaugh map. This means the moment you set or clear a cell in the Truth table, the corresponding cell on the Karnaugh map is set or cleared. Conversely, altering the Karnaugh map alters the Truth Table. You will also see ovals around the group of adjacent bits in the Karnaugh map and a prime implicant logical expression in the text box. Features
Installationkmap445.exe comes with an installer and an uninstaller (unins000.exe). Control Panel>Programs and Features can also be used for un-installation. kmap445.exe is a single executable that contains all necessary library functions. Consequently, the installer does not install any DLL's. kmap445.exe contains a digital signature for added protection against unauthorized alterations. Please look for the "Verified publisher : One Gram Software" message during installation. Finally, kmap445.exe is not copy protected, so you may make copies for yourself as long as you don't give them to other people. SecurityThe purchasing process is handled by a third-party company called Plug'nPay through a secure connection. If the transaction is successful, the Plug'nPay company does not send me your entire credit card number. This means you don't have to worry that your credit card number will leak out even if my PC is compromised. As for your contact information, I will never sell or give it to others. I will not send you promotional or upgrade notices either. The only exception is when somebody discovers a major bug, which has not happened for 12 years so far. The program itself is secure too. It does not transmit any information back to us. The only Internet activity is to point your browser to our web page when you click on Help > More_Programs. PurchasingThe price of kmap 4 is $15.00. You may purchase this with Visa, Master Card, AMEX, Discover, or JCB. Verification of card and download takes a few seconds, usually less than a minute. To begin the purchasing process, please click on the "Buy" button shown below. Click this button to purchase: FreewareI encourage you to try out the free version kmap12.exe before you buy the full version. This version contains much fewer features compared to Kmap445. The question I receive a lot is "kmap12 did not eliminate a redundant term. Does kmap12 contain a bug?" And the answer is "No. It does exactly what it was designed to do, which is to find the Prime Implicant solution." If you need it to go one step beyond prime implicants, please purchase kmap445 by clicking the "buy" the button shown above. About meI'm not just a programmer, but also a professional Electrical engineer. I have designed numerous digital products. My preference for the minimalist notation stems from years of personal experience. TestimonialsProfessor Jack Levine, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Cal State Los Angeles has been using versions of kmap in his Intro to Digital Logic classes for a long time now. He has just begun using kmap 4 and says he is delighted with its new features: "It is an excellent tool in teaching digital logic, especially in a classroom equipped with computer and projector. In addition to allowing me to enter values in a truth table--including don't-cares--and having these values automatically transferred to a K-map, I can derive an expression from the map in either SOP or POS form. This expression can then be optimized and I can highlight the terms of the simplified expression on the map one by one." "In the newest version, kmap 4, I can also back-fill the map from a boolean expression and show students how this (1) allows the expression to be simplified if not already in simplest form, and (2) allows the truth table for the expression to be derived in turn from the map." "Students can also use kmap 4 at home. If they use it properly--i.e. first do their homework problems by hand and then check it with kmap 4--they will gain a great deal of understanding of the value of kmaps. I really recommend this program to anyone teaching digital logic." Professor Levine can be contacted at 323-343-4514 or at Russell Sasamori of One Gram Software, who is solely responsible for the kmap program, can be contacted at Mr. Craig Kief, Lab Director of University of New Mexico Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, has installed Kmap 4 in the EECE 238 lab computers for students to use. Mr. Kief says his students really enjoy Kmap 4 and it fits easily into the course curriculum. Professor Luiz Antonio Vargas Pinto (ETE Rubens de Faria e Souza), a customer from Brazil who bought my program in 2000, wrote me an email in 2003 saying Kmap 4 had been very helpful in creating a student project involving the design of a highly complex elevator control system.

Hello inflation!
Its pretty much inevitable, when your primary tool to control inflation - the raising of interest rates - is a tool that is now tied behind your back for the next couple of years and you cannot use it. Raising interest rates would trigger the implosion of the rest of the investment banks and send us down the crisis/bailout rathole again.
Hyperinflation pretty much is the lesser of two evils.

Student loan debt climbs for 5th year in a row
More than 70 percent of the Class of 2012 took out loans. Oh, and they're seeing high unemployment, too.
This post comes from Maggie McGrath at partner site Forbes.
Student loan debt is many things -- pesky, inhibiting, capable of lingering for 25 years, even -- but there is one thing it is not: decreasing. According to a new report (.pdf file) from the Project on Student Debt at The Institute for College Access & Success (TICAS), the average amount students borrowed for college has increased for the fifth year in a row.
Of those students who graduated with a bachelor's degree in 2012, 71 percent took out loans, and that group left school with a record average of $29,400 student debt. To be fair, the report notes, that number includes a small number of graduates of for-profit four-year colleges and they tend to have considerably more debt than students at not-for-profit universities. All colleges which must report their numbers to the Federal government every four years, as they did in 2012.
So here's an apples to apples comparison: The annual Project on Student Debt/TICAS report tracks yearly figures for graduates of not-for-profit public and private schools only. Excluding for-profit schools, 68 percent of the class of 2012 graduated with student loans averaging $27,850. That's up from the 66 percent of class of 2011 graduates who had loans averaging of $26,600. (These numbers aren't adjusted for inflation, but even if they were, the upward debt trend would be the same, albeit less steep.)
One factor that potentially accounts for some of the increasing debt load is that many 2012 graduates entered school in 2008 at the height of the financial crisis. If anyone's college savings cushion was depleted by the crisis and the Great Recession, it's this group (and their parents). The report notes that any hit to savings was exacerbated by state budget cuts that led to "sharp" tuition hikes at many public institutions, also increasing students' need to borrow.
The Project on Student Debt/TICAS report notes that the class of 2012's increased debt load came with a side of high joblessness, with 7.7 percent unemployment rate for young college graduates in 2012 and an under-employment rate of 18.3 percent. (The under-employment rate includes graduates aged 21 to 24 who weren't in graduate school and were unemployed or working fewer hours than they wanted or had given up looking for a job.)
However, TICAS emphasizes that young adults without a college degree have fared much worse in the workplace, with high school graduates who have no college experience facing a 17.9 percent unemployment rate.
While TICAS president Lauren Asher acknowledges the results of the report might be discouraging, she insists that a college degree has retained value in this job market and economy. "Despite discouraging headlines, a college degree remains the best route to finding a job in this tight market," Asher said in a statement. "If you need to borrow to get through school, federal student loans are the safest way to borrow. Whatever you earn, income-driven plans like Pay As You Earn can help keep federal loan payments manageable."
Asher also noted that how much a student borrows can vary greatly depending on which state and which school he or she attends. In a breakdown of student debt by state, the report shows Delaware as the nation's highest-debt state, with 56 percent of graduates leaving school with an average $33,649 in debt. (State numbers don't include even more heavily indebted for-profit school graduates.) New Hampshire ranked high in both average debt size and percent of students graduating with loans, with 74 percent of the class of 2012 graduating with an average $32,698 in loans. On the less debt-laden side of things is New Mexico, where 61 percent of bachelor's degree recipients graduate with an average $17,994 debt load.
On a college-by-college basis, debt size varies even more, the report shows; average debt figures ranged from $4,450 to $49,450 among the 1,005 colleges that had both usable data and at least 100 graduates in the class of 2012. In the upper end of that range, 122 colleges reported average student debt of more than $35,000 per graduate who needed loans, and 48 colleges reported more than 90% of their class of 2012 graduating with debt.
Finally, because a report on student debt wouldn't be a report on student debt without going into figures on student loans issued by private lenders, TICAS found that 30 percent of all 2012 bachelor's degree recipients leaving school with loans (including those from for-profit schools) graduated with an average private loan debt of $13,600. This may not sound like a lot, but TICAS says that the figure is somewhat concerning because "the most recent available data show that the majority of undergraduates who took out risky private loans in 2007-08 did not use the maximum available in safer federal student loans."
TICAS recommends that college financial aid offices play a "significant role" in helping their students avoid debt from private lenders, but notes that financial aid practices can vary quite a bit, "with some colleges not only bypassing such counseling opportunities but even including private loans in the initial financial aid package, giving the school's tacit approval of this risky form of financing."
If you are a recent (or even not-so-recent) graduate struggling to repay the loans you took out while in undergrad, check out these tips on repaying student debt. Among the most important things to do: check to see if you qualify for an alternate repayment plan, which can reduce your monthly payment obligation and extend the repayment period beyond the typical ten years.
If you are still in school or are in high school and considering higher education options, among the most important things for you to do is investigate scholarship opportunities from outside sources like Fastweb.com, Studentscholarshipsearch.com, Collegescholarship.org and Cappex.com.

College is a good investment for some people but it also depends on whether you are really college material, what you major in, and where you go. It doesn't make sense to pay a $100k to go to some no nothing private school. And if you need a a low student to professor ratio I don't want to hire you.

Duchess Kate isn't just happy to be pregnant, she's ecstatic! The Duchess of Cambridge stepped out for an evening engagement at the National Portrait Gallery in a pale blue Emilia Wickstead frock and matching heels on Wednesday and practically glowed as she greeted the gathered crowds.
Kate's knee-skimming, sleeveless dress showed off her arms, but only gave a hint of her growing baby bump with its cinched waist structure. The 31-year-old mother-to-be was due to host a reception for The Art Room, a charity that works with children to increase their self-confidence and independence through art.
PHOTOS: Kate's baby bump style
Upon arrival, Kate gave a short speech, telling the room, "I am a firm believer in the power of art to make a difference and The Art Room makes this on a daily basis." The cheerful royal also praised the way the foundation has helped children "fulfill their potential" by staying within the educational system.
And the Duchess has another reason to look so happy -- the photographer responsible for snapping shots of her bathing topless during a vacation with husband Prince William has been placed under formal criminal investigation, sources told Us Weekly.
Paris insiders have identified the photographer as Valerie Suau, who is believed to have been arrested by police earlier this month. Though she has denied taking any "indecent" photographs of the duchess (purportedly with a long lens), Kate's lawyer Aurelien Hamelle says the photographs still showed her client in a "highly intimate moment."
Kate, who is due to give birth in July, has been turning her focus to charity works and public appearances in recent months instead, but the investigation marks a legal triumph.
Just one day before, she gave onlookers more of a peek at her round baby belly while out to visit a primary school in Manchester, England, wearing a clingy printed "Sophia" dress by Erdem paired with dark blue pumps.

Definition of Orc
- This definition is questionable and is pending deletion. It will be saved from deletion if legitimate citations are found.
Denoting an individual who excessively uses the phrase "I'm gonna need a bigger boat" or "We're gonna need a bigger boat" as a metaphor for every situation that denotes overwhelming odds, or an overwhelming scenario.
This is in reference to the 1975 blockbuster film 'JAWS' and the name of the boat 'ORCA' which is confronted by a 25 foot shark. Typically a fan of the film and one who admires the boat can be called an Orc.
Hey, I noticed Ted keeps saying "We're gonna need a bigger boat" every time we lose a game. Ted must be an Orc.Last edited on Oct 20 2011. Submitted by Anonymous on Oct 20 2011.

Once your youngster gets the hang of it, they can move on to writing full words and work on their maths skills to continue their development.

Creatures of the Night
I was excited to see this event in addition to Boo at the Zoo. My 8 and 11 yr olds thought going to the zoo at night for scary activities rather than the daytime Boo at the Zoo would be fun. Well the gates opened at 6:30pm and by the time we got thru the gate the line for the Haunted Tram seemed endless. We started at the haunted house which was awesome. The ''Pumpkin Execution'' only occurred every 30min so ppl were just standing in the cold listening to bad jokes in between. The corn maze was too easy, too short and too crowed and therefore too boring. The DJ dance party was ok. The DJ couldn't really keep the kids dancing. The additional charge for cookie decorating, pumpkin carving and the carousel was a...

$13.6 billion Life Tech deal raises questions for workers, shareholders
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. will buy Life Technologies Corp. — formed only four years ago with the merger of Foster City's Applied Biosystems Inc. and Invitrogen Corp. — for $13.6 billion.
The deal would net Waltham, Mass.-based Thermo Fisher (NYSE: TMO), the world's largest maker of scientific and laboratory equipment, a significant gain in next-generation gene sequencing. At the same time, as with any consolidation of large companies, it potentially throws the future of some 1,200 Life Technologies employees in the Bay Area in flux.
Carlsbad-based Life Technologies (NASDAQ: LIFE), a developer and maker of tools and equipment for life sciences companies, recently said it would invest $18 million to expand its Pleasanton manufacturing facility. It also has operations in Foster City, South San Francisco and Benicia. It bought genetic information company Navigenics Inc. of Foster City last summer and in August 2010 bought South San Francisco's Ion Torrent for $375 million in cash and stock.
Thermo Fisher reportedly beat out private equity group Blackstone Group LP. Roche Group, the parent company of South San Francisco's Genentech Inc. and Roche Molecular Diagnostics in Pleasanton, at one time was identified in media reports as a bidder.
Yet some industry watchers say Thermo Fisher may be overpaying for Life Technologies.
"Even if the company manages to reaccelerate Life's stagnant business and exceed estimated synergies, it is hard for us to view this acquisiton as value accretive at the price Thermo Fisher is paying," Morningstar analyst Alex Morozov wrote in a research note, according to the Boston Business Journal. "Returns on invested capital will take yet another hit because of the rich price paid, and Thermo Fisher's penchant for serial acquisitions gives us pause."

Parliament's environmental watchdog has criticised the Government's economic focus in tinkering with resource management laws, even before a major overhaul was announced this week.
The Resource Management Act (RMA) is about considering the environmental effects of development and "is not, and should not become, an economic development act", says Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment Jan Wright.
On Friday, she released her submission on the Government's proposed changes to the Resource Management Reform Bill, which the Government announced last year.
It proposes streamlining Auckland's first unitary plan, a six-month time limit for councils to process consents for medium-sized projects, and easier direct referral to the Environment Court for major regional projects. Councils will also have to show they have carried out a thorough cost-benefit analysis in their planning decisions.
Dr Wright was scathing of plans to increase the influence of economic concerns in the RMA process.
"There is a sense in the changes that the environment is considered the enemy of economic progress despite the fact that a large part of our economy is built on our environmental credentials.
"I am also concerned that the changes would give more influence to effects that can be easily expressed in dollar terms than to effects that cannot be so easily monetised."
The cost of creating reserves could more easily be counted than the value of the biodiversity in those reserves, she said.
"Too often what can be counted is given most weight even if it is not very important or accurate."
Dr Wright is yet to consider the effects of the Government's latest plans to give a greater role to central government in the RMA process.
Environment Minister Amy Adams on Thursday unveiled plans for sweeping law changes that will give a much greater role for central government to direct local government decision-making.

tHINK what you want, that is your right, but it might be better to keep in out of others sight.
About this I'm going to be blunt,Think and feel what you want.That is your right,in your own God given sight,however it might,Be best to keep it hid,and in your own head.
Sometimes you can be a legend in our own mind,others may find your foolishness unkind.It's alright to feel it,just don't reveal it.
You'll be more appreciated,if you're more humbly related.Showing to much arrogance,is a form of ignorance.Being humble might not feed your big ego.But it's the most intelligent way to go.
Then again maybe this is just in my world.

You like Haiku,I still love U.

John Phillip Stamos (/ˈsteɪmoʊs/ STAY-mohs; born August 19, 1963) is an American actor, singer and musician best known for his work in television, especially in his starring role as Jesse Katsopolis on the ABC sitcom Full House. Since the ending of that show in 1995, Stamos has appeared in numerous television films and series. Since 2005 he has been the national spokesperson for Project Cuddle.[1] From 2006 to 2009, Stamos had a starring role on the NBC medical drama ER as Dr. Tony Gates. In September 2009, he began playing the role of Albert in the Broadway revival of Bye Bye Birdie. In September 2010 Stamos began a multi-episode arc as Dr. Carl Howell on the second season of the Fox series Glee. In 2013, he assumed a major role in the third season of the USA Network television series Necessary Roughness, which stars Callie Thorne.
Early life[edit]
Stamos was born in Cypress, California. He attended John F. Kennedy High School and Wentworth Institute of Technology.[2] He is the oldest child and only son of Loretta (née Phillips), a former swimsuit model who was raised in England but is of Irish ancestry,[3][citation needed] and Bill Stamos, a restaurateur of Greek descent.[4][5] Stamos has two younger sisters, Jannen and Alaina, who are both teachers. His family's last name was originally Stamatopoulos (Greek: Σταματόπουλος) but his paternal grandparents shortened the name to Stamos after they moved to the United States from Greece.[6] ('-poulos' is a common Greek suffix in surnames, meaning "son of"; 'Stamato-' is the root).
Stamos worked at his family's fast food restaurant. He worked there in his teens, with his mother and father.
Early career[edit]
Stamos began his acting career with the role of Blackie Parrish on the soap opera General Hospital, for which he was nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award in 1984. His stint on the show got him noticed by daytime viewers. Stamos decided to move on in 1984, when he auditioned for and got the lead role in a short-lived CBS sitcom called Dreams, in which he played an aspiring musician in a band of the same name.
Later, he played a role in the sitcom You Again? (1986) with Jack Klugman.
Full House[edit]
In the late 1980s, ABC's Full House gradually became a hit, and the show solidified Stamos's career. In the first season, his character's full name was credited as Jesse Cochran. During the second season he then changed his character's last name to Katsopolis to highlight his Greek heritage, according to Jeff Franklin. He played one of the show's protagonists, Jesse, who lives with his brother in-law, whose deceased wife was Jesse's older sister. Danny's best friend, Joey, also lives in the house with them. The three help each other raise three young girls. Jesse is known to be the "bad boy" at first, until he falls in love with and marries Rebecca Donaldson and has twin boys, Nicky and Alex. In 1995, after eight seasons, the series came to an end. Stamos has since maintained close relationships with co-stars Bob Saget, Dave Coulier, Lori Loughlin, Jodie Sweetin, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, and Candace Cameron Bure. As of 2013, the show airs in syndication on ABC Family, Nickelodeon and TeenNick.
Post-Full House[edit]
Since the show's end, Stamos has appeared in numerous made-for-television films, stage productions, television series and commercials. He had starring roles in the television series Thieves (2001), and Jake in Progress (2005). Both shows ran for several episodes before cancellation.[7][8] In 2003, Stamos guest-starred in Friends, appearing in the episode The One with the Donor, playing a man who went to Chandler and Monica's apartment for dinner, not knowing he was actually being interviewed to be a sperm donor.
Stamos was a guest star in a first-season episode of MTV's, The Andy Milonakis Show (2005), playing himself. He took part in only one skit, which featured him in a tree, having rabies, and being put down by another character.
In the A&E television movie Wedding Wars (2006), he starred as Shel, a gay wedding planner. He stated that his performance reflected his support for same-sex marriages.[9]
He has made several voice acting appearances such as in the MTV animated series Clone High in the episode, "Changes: The Big Prom: The Sex Romp: The Season Finale", where he played himself, and as the What's Global Warming Penguin in Bob Saget's parody film Farce of the Penguins.
In 2006, Stamos guest starred in two episodes in season 12 of ER as paramedic-turned-intern Tony Gates. In 2006, at the start of ER's thirteenth season, he joined the cast of ER as a series regular. Executive producer John Wells said that he wanted him earlier the season before but Stamos was contracted with Jake in Progress.[citation needed] Shortly after that show was canceled, Stamos was brought aboard as a series regular.
In February 2008, Stamos appeared in the television adaptation of A Raisin in the Sun. In August 2008, Stamos was the roast master for Comedy Central Roast Of Bob Saget.[10]
On June 8, 2010, it was announced that Stamos would portray Carl Howell, a new love interest for Emma Pillsbury (Jayma Mays), in the second season on the popular television show Glee.[11][12]
In 2011, Stamos guest starred on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.[13] and was featured in a CollegeHumor video with Bob Saget.[14] Stamos also guest-starred as himself on Two and a Half Men as Charlie's old friend, who was interested in buying the house until he found out that the place was Charlie's.
Since 2011, Stamos has appeared in a series of commercials for Dannon's Greek yogurt brand Oikos; including his first Super Bowl commercial which was aired during Super Bowl 2012.[15]
In February 2012, it was reported that Stamos would take on one of the lead roles on the new Fox drama Little Brother. The series was created by Everybody Loves Raymond writer Mike Royce, and centers around a man who finds out that he has a long-lost half brother.[16]
In March 2013, Stamos signed on in a recurring role on the USA Network drama Necessary Roughness, during season three. He will be playing Connor McClane, the head of a sports and entertainment management company that is interested in hiring Dani.[17]
Music and theatre[edit]
Stamos started learning drums when he was four, and started his own band called Destiny. They had paying concerts at some amusement parks and parties.[18]
Stamos performed on an independently released 1994 album entitled Shades of Blue along with Lanny Cordola, Gary Griffin, Sandra Stephens, Tony Guerrero, and David Enos. Shades of Blue was re-released digitally through iTunes and other channels in 2010 after being long out-of-print.
Stamos appeared on Broadway as the emcee in Cabaret, and also in Nine and How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying.
Stamos performed the Billy Joel song "Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel)" on the 2006 charity album Unexpected Dreams – Songs From the Stars. He also performed the role of Emcee in the Broadway production of Cabaret.
Stamos performed on a Marianas Trench song, recorded on the album Masterpiece Theatre.
On March 30, 2009, he announced that he would participate in the Broadway revival of Bye Bye Birdie.[19] Stamos won the 2009–10 Golden Icon Award for best actor in a musical for his performance in that production.[20]
Stamos was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on November 16, 2009.[21] The star is located at 7021 Hollywood Blvd.

On July 10, 2012, Stamos began performances on Broadway in Gore Vidal's The Best Man as Senator Joseph Cantwell.[23]
On July 19, 2013, Stamos reprised his role as Jesse Katsopolis for a "Jesse and the Rippers" reunion on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Played straight by host Fallon (who introduced the band as being from San Francisco and having a number one song in Japan), Stamos performed a medley of songs featured on Full House including Forever and the series' theme song Everywhere You Look. Bob Saget and Lori Loughlin also made cameos.[24]
The Beach Boys[edit]
Stamos, who plays the drums, keyboards, guitar, bass and various percussion instruments, has occasionally performed with The Beach Boys, dating back to 1985. In 1988, he appeared in their video for "Kokomo", in which he played both the conga drums and the steel drums. In 1990, he played drums for them on the title track of the comedy Problem Child.
In 1992, he sang lead vocals on a new version of "Forever" for their album Summer in Paradise. The song was originally written and sung by Beach Boy Dennis Wilson and released in 1970. The song was also featured twice on Full House. The first was a recording sung at his character's wedding, while the second was a recording sung for his character's twin sons. The 1992 music video, titled "Forever by Jesse and the Rippers", featured Stamos predominantly. Three of The Beach Boys members are however briefly shown singing harmonies with Stamos: Carl Wilson, Bruce Johnston, and Mike Love.
Since the 1990s, Stamos has regularly performed with The Beach Boys during their summer tours, playing drums and guitar, and singing some of their hit songs such as "Forever".[citation needed]
On the March 30, 2010 episode of ABC's Dancing with the Stars, Stamos appeared with them again, playing drums, congas, and guitar.

Speaking as someone who's lost a loved one at the hands of a drunk driver, this is a tough story to sympathize with.

Vivendi To Spread Boll's Seed
Did I write this story just so I could use that cheeky headline? Better believe it. But I also figured some of you might actually be interested in an update on the status of Uwe Boll's blood-drenched slasher flick Seed.

Lifetime explores the fast-changing landscape of teenage sexuality at a prestigious academy that was rocked by a shocking sex Scandal in the Lifetime Original Movie, Restless VIRIGINS, premiering Saturday,March 9 at 8pm ET/PT.

The Scandal made national headlines that shocked America, leading the elite school to expel multiple students, including a U.S. Senator's son.
Restless Virgins is produced by Scandal Street Productions for Lifetime. The film is executive produced by Michael Roiff (Waitress) and produced by Harvey Kahn (She Made Them Do It). Jason LaPeyre (I Declare War) directed the film from a script by Andrew Cochran (Adult World), based on a book by Abigail Jones and Marissa Miley.

This question is about how does an owner of company who own n% equity of company as a technical co founder makes real world cash. This is not about regular share holder who buys share to make money. This is about company founders.
This is regarding a company which will be registered as per Indian Laws and which is a private limited company. That means only 3 founder + investing organization. No other shareholders. It is not a public limited company. We are not going to public to raise funding. We will not be listing ourselves in share market or stock market.
When we get equity in a company that means we get n% ownership of that company. But how do I earn the actual real world 'cash' out of this equity?
Assuming that I own n% of the company,
I will get n% of total income of company per month paid at the end of each month? Do I have to manually write this in agreement? or this is default accepted? OR
I will get n% of total income of company per year paid at the end of each year? Do I have to manually write this in agreement? or this is default accepted? OR
I will get equity converted to cash only when I will sale the equity to someone in future? OR
I will get a mutually agreed salary for the life time of company? How to calculate the salary?
In case of salary who will decide my salary before getting funding, after funding and once we become profitable?
