Ofra Harnoy
Ofra Harnoy CM (Hebrew: עופרה הרנוי; born January 31, 1965) is a Canadian cellist.
Harnoy was born in Hadera, Israel. She moved with her family to Toronto in 1971. When she was six, she began cello lessons with her father, Jacob Harnoy. Her teachers included Vladimir Orloff, William Pleeth, Pierre Fournier, Jacqueline du Pré, and Mstislav Rostropovich.
Harnoy made her professional debut as a soloist with an orchestra at age ten. Her solo-orchestral and recital debuts at Carnegie Hall in 1982 brought her public and critical acclaim.
Harnoy performed and recorded the world premiere of the Offenbach Cello Concerto in 1983 and the North American premiere of the Bliss Cello Concerto in 1984. She also made the world premiere recordings of several Vivaldi concertos. In 1987 Harnoy joined the roster of RCA Victor Red Seal, and recorded several best selling albums.
Harnoy has played in many genres of music. She has played with artists such as Plácido Domingo, Sting, Igor Oistrakh, Loreena McKennitt, and Jesse Cook among others.
Ofra
Ofra (Hebrew: עֹפְרָה) is an Israeli settlement located in the northern West Bank in the jurisdiction of the Mateh Binyamin Regional Council. It is situated on the main road between Jerusalem and Nablus (Route 60) and has 3,200 inhabitants (2010).
The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this. According to human rights organization B'Tselem, the state of Israel itself has argued that much of Ofra is built on privately owned Palestinian land, making it also unlawful according to Israeli law.
History
Ofra's establishment in April/May 1975 was part of a struggle between the Gush Emunim settlement movement, which was founded in February 1974, and the Israeli Labor government, which opposed Israeli settlement amid densely populated Palestinian areas. The name was taken for its biblical aura from a town mentioned in the Book of Joshua: Joshua 18:23.
The establishing group from Gush Emunim first obtained jobs at a nearby military base on Mount Ba'al Hatzor. They established a work camp in the abandoned barracks of a Jordanian army base. They then brought in their families and raised an Israeli flag. Though opposed by then Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, Ofra was given political backing by Shimon Peres, then defense minister in Rabin's government, and by his settlement adviser Moshe Netzer.

Over High
by: Tony Yayo[Verse 1:]
Meyer lansky flow
Riding with my marl barker bitch
44 in her clothe, yea
Jewish lawyer find a loop hole in the case
Sour dour every hour take it to the face
L.a, smoking on that pussy wagon
Medicated weed, got the room spinning
This may cause drozyness
6-50 drop top on some claret shit
[Chorus:]
I'm high till the day that I die
Got the hotel smelling like
La, la, la
La, la, la
Yeaaaa
[Verse 2:]
She chiefing on a blunt steaming
Selina the stewardess got me fiending
We got the marriot smoked out
Horse carriage on my sneaks cost a good amount
Uh, put my smoke under the microscope to see the strands
And I can see that green cross on sunset when a nigga lands
See that green cross that means I'm going to get some of that medicated shit
Gangus cole, yea
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
Headbang keep me up, sour diesel slow me down
Blue dream got me dreaming bout her now
Yea, I'm marc jacobed too the socks
Bugatti too tight when I want to fuck
Smokey scenery, switch positions lightin up
I got a dogg pound daz dilli like kurupt
