Real World (album)

Real World (stylised as REAL WORLD) is Kokia's 11th studio album, released on March 31, 2010. Kokia travelled to the Tunisian Sahara for inspiration for songs on the album. Because of this, much of the promotional material is themed around her trip to Tunisia, including the album booklet and the music video for "The Woman."

Background

Before the album, three digital singles were released over eight months. Dubbed the Life Trilogy (Life Trilogy ～いのちの3部作～), the three singles featured message songs for humanity."Kimi o Sagashite/Last Love Song" (君をさがして/last love song, I Search for You) was the first of these, released in August. "Kimi o Sagashite" asked the question "What is life, and why does it disappear/why does the end come?" in its lyrics. The second single was "Single Mother/Christmas no Hibiki" (single mother / クリスマスの響き, Echo of Christmas), released in December. "Single Mother" was an autobiographical story about the unreplaceable bonds Kokia has to her mother. The final, "Kodoku na Ikimono/Ano Hi no Watashi ni" (孤独な生きもの/あの日の私に, Lonely Living Things/To Me on That Day), was released in March two weeks before the album's Japanese release. The song has a message that people have the power to change sadness and loneliness with kindness.

Real World (Queensrÿche song)

"Real World" is a song co-written and performed by progressive metal band Queensrÿche and orchestral composer Michael Kamen that was contributed to the action film Last Action Hero in 1993 and was recorded during the sessions for the band's 1994 album Promised Land and would surface on the 2003 remastered CD of Promised Land. The band also released the song as part of their 2007 compilation album Sign of the Times.

Ben Turner (weightlifter)

Ben Turner (born 23 January 1984 in Brisbane) is an Australian weightlifter best known for his performances at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, where he won the Gold Medal in the 69 kg category, and the 2010 Commonwealth Games in New Dehli, India, where he won Silver in the 77 kg category. Turner is also a coach and has worked with former top Australian female lifter Erika Yamasaki.

Early life

Turner grew up in Carina, an eastern suburb in Brisbane, the state capital of Queensland. He attended St. Oliver Plunkett's Catholic Primary School from 1990-1993. During these years he developed an interest in Australian Rules Football, Cricket and Rugby League. From 1994-2001 he attended Iona College in Wynnum. During his time there he was involved in cricket, rugby league in Junior School (1994–1996), and rugby union (1997–2001) in high school, playing all at representative level.

Weightlifting

Turner developed an interest in Olympic Weightlifting after seeing the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta on television. It wasn't until 1999 that Turner did anything about his interest due to high school commitments. After seeing an article in a local paper, he enquired to the local club about trying the sport. In 2000, Queensland Weightlifting came to his high school to run the national talent identification clean and jerk competition. Turner, weighing 60 kg, lifted 85 kg and placed 3rd in the event. Within a matter of weeks Turner had started training at the Cougars Weightlifting Club at Chandler under coach Miles Wydall, the site of the 1982 Commonwealth Games. In 2001, at the completion of Year 12, he decided to commit to weightlifting full-time. At that point Turner withdrew from Queensland Cricket Under 17 Squad which he was a member of, sacrificing any further representative involvement in the sport.
