Easy to deploy user downloads are provided, as well some developer documentation and mostly the code used: TorTV does not reimplements nor modifies the Tor source code in any way, it just provides binaries for embedded targets and some scripting to facilitate ease of installation.

Chinese Government Says it Will Control Rainfall to Generate 10 Percent More Precipitation by 2015
China‘s boom in industry and population has put a strain on its natural resources – not to mention the health of the environment – over the past few decades.

The program, which was included in the newly released 12th Five-Year Plan (2011-2015), is anticipated to bring in an additional 230 billion cubic meters of precipitation per year. This is on top of the 50 billion China already artificially creates annually in the northeastern province of Jilin.
