Yehiam
Yehi'am (Hebrew: יְחִיעָם) is an Israeli kibbutz in the western Upper Galilee, 8 miles east of the coastal town of Nahariya and 14 miles south-east of the border with Lebanon. Yehi'am is located some 365 meters above sea level, and is under the jurisdiction of the Matte Asher Regional Council. As for 2015, Yehi'am's population counts 540 residents, of which 150 are kibbutz members.
Yehiam is situated next to the ruins of the Ottoman-era castle of Jiddin, built on top of the 13th-century Crusader castle of Judin.
History
Yehiam was founded by a group of the socialist Zionist Hashomer Hatzair youth movement - Holocaust survivors from Hungary and members from Palestine - who named themselves Kibbutz HaSela (lit. The Rock), whereas "kibbutz" is still understood here as a wandering "collective", not as a settlement. For a while the HaSela collective lived in tents in the area of Kiryat Haim, looking for an appropriate place to settle. Eventually, on 26 November, 1946, Kibbutz Yehiam was established at the site of the medieval castle, with only the men taking residence, at first within the castle and then in tents at its foot, while the women, children and some men remained at Kiryat Haim, where they worked in order to support the group up at the castle. According to one guidebook, there were 50 founding members, who transformed the castle ruins into a military training camp. The UN Partition resolution came almost exactly one year later, on 29 November, 1947, placing the kibbutz within the envisaged Arab state, rather than the Jewish one. The new name, Yehiam, was adopted in honour of Yehiam Weitz, son of Jewish Agency official Joseph Weitz, who had been killed not far away, near the Arab village of Al-Kabri, in the "Night of the Bridges", a Palmach operation which took place on June 16-17, 1946. The decision to establish the new kibbutz was taken after consultations with Joseph Weitz.

Age Ain't A Factor
by: Jaheim(Verse)
You're like a wine, you get better with time,
Got you here long, gold is your soul, you're so fine.
Your kind of beauty is rare and I swear you get better looking with every year.
Got your sexual peak, your full figure physic,
Young girl can't compete.
And since we're in the kitchen, girl, let me get that muffin
You look better the older you get, Benjamin Button.
(Chorus)
Can't believe with time, girl, you're getting better,
Looking like a picture of the toring after
Your story gets more pretty every chapter,
Getting more attractive, age ain't a factor.
You're more than I've got, I'm about to leave this,
We're sitting on a bine with time I'm squitting
If I could be your man, girl, you won't want for nothing
You look better the older you get, Benjamin Button.
(Verse)
You really need to let me in your world, girl,
What a proud girl,
No cooper, you're still a kitten,
You're looking out, girl shout your mouth you're looking thicker
You know how to hold your liquor
Nigger show me your ID, I get the picture.
I propose a toast, here just raise your glass,
Mama they looking foxy, in my stacy gash
Ladies, it's Thanks Giving and I'm about to eat that stuffing
You look better the older you get, Benjamin Button.
(Chorus)
Can't believe with time, girl, you're getting better,
Looking like a picture of the toring after
Your story gets more pretty every chapter,
Getting more attractive, age ain't a factor.
You're more than I've got, I'm about to leave this,
We're sitting on a bine with time I'm squitting
If I could be your man, girl, you won't want for nothing
You look better the older you get, Benjamin Button.
(Bridge)
How could you make it look so easy
Casual season, sexy for no reason.
I put back teasing not forsake my heathen
If I tell em how cause your love is, they won't believe me.
(Chorus)
Can't believe with time, girl, you're getting better,
Looking like a picture of the toring after
Your story gets more pretty every chapter,
Getting more attractive, age ain't a factor.
You're more than I've got, I'm about to leave this,
We're sitting on a bine with time I'm squitting
If I could be your man, girl, you won't want for nothing
