The song was revealed on October 6, when Kyary Pamyu Pamyu announced the song's use in the anime during her performance at the TV Asahi Dream Festival. The "Kimi ni 100 Percent" / "Furisodation" single was announced in December. In 2014 for the film "", a second song of hers was used for the theme song, "Family Party". |
"Kimi ni 100 Percent" was written to have lyrics that would make children happy. Kyary Pamyu Pamyu found the melody simple to remember, so sung the song a lot smoother than she had in past recordings. The song is the second of hers to feature "100%" in the title, after , the B-side to her "Fashion Monster" single. |
The song began being used in the opening sequences of "Crayon Shin-chan" in October 2012. The minute long clip of the song broadcast during the series was released as a digital download on December 7. Kyary Pamyu Pamyu made a cameo appearance on the January 25 episode of "Crayon Shin-chan", voicing a character drawn in her likeness. On the same day, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu performed the song at "Music Station" live, alongside the characters of Crayon Shin-chan. This was the first time in the anime's 22-year history that program's characters had appeared to perform a song alongside a theme song's singer. |
On January 28, an Asobisystem event held at AgeHa in Shin-Kiba, Tokyo was held to celebrate Kyary Pamyu Pamyu's 20th birthday, featuring performances by musicians such as Yasutaka Nakata, Ram Rider and Kyary Pamyu Pamyu herself. This was followed by a mini-tour, , featuring a performance in Tokyo on January 30 and two performances in Nagoya and Osaka on February 2. |
Unlike Kyary Pamyu Pamyu's other singles, "Kimi ni 100 Percent" did not receive a music video. |
In addition to the "Furisodation"-related single covers showing "Kyary as an adult", a Crayon Shin-chan version of the single was released. This edition features a caricature of Kyary Pamyu Pamyu in the same art style as the "Crayon Shin-chan" manga and anime, drawn by artist at the Groovisions design studio. |
"Rolling Stone Japan" reviewer Kazumi Nanba gave the "Kimi ni 100 Percent" / "Furisodation" single 3.5 stars out of five, calling the song "relaxed and light" and completely different to "Furisodation". He praised Kyary Pamyu Pamyu's vocal technique of not strictly matching the melody and very slightly differing as "technical" and felt it was a sign of Kyary Pamyu Pamyu's rapid growth as a vocalist. "CDJournal" reviewers described it as a "game pop song with Kyary's full-on charms", and felt that the song had a fairy tale feel, due to the "dance flavor" hiding away the darkness of the world. |

= = = Sean R. Garner = = = |
Sean R. Garner is a physicist currently working on a diverse suite of projects for Palo Alto Research Center (PARC), in San Francisco, CA. Garner received his BA, Mathematics and BS, Physics from University of California, Santa Cruz in 1999, and completed his PhD in Physics in 2005 at Cornell University. His thesis was titled "Force-Gradient Detection of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance", and Prof. John A. Marohn was his Doctoral Advisor. He then spent 3 years as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard University, School of Engineering and Applied Sciences researching ultra-slow and stopped light in Bose-Einstein Condensates with Prof. Lene Vestergaard Hau. Garner was the second author on the groundbreaking paper “Coherent control of optical information with matter wave dynamics,” which appeared on the cover of Nature, and detailed the first experimental verification "that a slow light pulse can be stopped and stored in one Bose–Einstein condensate and subsequently revived from a totally different condensate, 160 m away; information is transferred through conversion of the optical pulse into a travelling matter wave." |
After completing his post-doctoral work, Garner moved to California, to take up the position of Area Manager of PARC San Francisco Research Division in 2009. This allowed him to undertake further work in photovoltaics, sustainable engineering and other technologies designed to innovate PARC products to be "environmentally friendly". PARC currently conducts research into "clean technology", user interface design, sensemaking, ubiquitous computing and context-aware systems, large-area electronics, and model-based control and optimization in embedded, intelligent systems. Garner is currently managing the Energy Systems group in the Hardware Systems Laboratory, and has a focus on CleanTech, of which PARC is a major sponsor. Garner's current work is focussed on advanced cooling technologies for next-generation air conditioning and refrigeration; atmospheric CO2 capture for renewable, infrastructure-compatible liquid fuels; and enhanced geothermal systems. He has presented many papers at conferences and will be discussing PARC's SENSOR: (Smart Embedded Network of Sensors with Optical Readout) at the ARPA-E Energy Innovation Summit. |

= = = Margaret Newton = = = |
Margaret Brown Newton (20 April 1887 – 6 April 1971) was a Canadian plant pathologist and mycologist internationally renowned for her pioneering research in stem rust "Puccinia graminis", particularly for its effect on the staple Canadian agricultural product wheat. |
Newton never married, and was regarded as a friendly and persistent individual with drive and a warm personality. She often "worked to the point of exhaustion". |
Newton was born in Montreal on 20 April 1887 to John Newton and Elizabeth Brown. She had four younger siblings, three brothers named Robert, John, and William, and a sister named Dorothy. Her father was a chemist interested in the application of science to farming. |
Her formal education began in a one-room schoolhouse at North Nation Mills, a mill town of about 300 residents on the Petite-Nation River north of Plaisance. The family moved to Montreal when her father took a higher-paying job. There, Newton completed middle school and two years of high school, after which the family returned to Plaisance. Here, Newton completed high school, attended country school for two more years, then taught at the North Nation Mills schoolhouse for one year. She then moved to Vankleek Hill in Ontario, continuing her education at Vankleek Hill Collegiate Institute before completing her teacher training at the Toronto Normal School. |
She then taught in Lachine for three years, and at the North Nation Mills schoolhouse for one year. The money she saved was used to finance her post-secondary education. |
Passionate about art, Newton enrolled in an Arts program at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, completing one year of studies before returning to Montreal, where she enrolled in an agricultural program at Macdonald College. There, she was the only female in a class of 50 students, and was the recipient of the Governor General's Academic Medal for top achievement. At this time, she joined the Quebec Society for the Protection of Plants, becoming its first female member. She was also a member of the debating society, and president of the literary society for one year. |
Her advisor W.P. Fraser travelled to Western Canada in 1917 so he could begin researching stem rust from a devastating epidemic in 1916 that had destroyed 100 million bushels of wheat worth about $200 million. He assigned Newton to study the samples he collected, who accepted only after the school's dean eliminated restrictions on women using laboratory facilities at night; she still had to contend with the 22:00 curfew of her residence. During her research, she discovered that stem rust spores infected wheat with different rapaciousness. |
Newton and her friend Pearl Clayton Stanford graduated in 1918 with a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture (B.S.A.), becoming the first women to complete a degree at the college. The next year, she received a Master of Science (M.Sc.) degree, for which her thesis "The Resistance of Wheat Varieties to Puccinia graminis" covered "different spore forms within the stem rust fungus". Throughout, her academic achievement was the top of her class. |
In 1920, as a result of her research into grain rusts while completing her undergraduate and master's degrees at Macdonald College, she was offered a research position at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon. She accepted, and from 1922 to 1925 was on faculty as an assistant professor in the Department of Biology, joining her former advisor W.P. Fraser, among which duties was included teaching. During this time, she conducted her doctoral studies at the University of Minnesota, where under the supervision of Elvin C. Stakman she completed her Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in agricultural science in 1922 with the dissertation "Studies in wheat stem rust (Puccinia graminis tritici)". Stakman had also been researching stem rust. She did this by spending six months in Minnesota, then six months in Saskatoon. |
In 1925, she was invited by William Richard Motherwell, the federal Minister of Agriculture, to help manage the newly opened Dominion Rust Research Laboratory at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, established as a response to rust outbreaks in 1916, 1919, and 1921. She was appointed the laboratory's senior plant pathologist, a position she maintained until retirement, and brought with her former student Thorvaldur Johnson as her research assistant. She established an annual stem rust survey in Western Canada, discovering a diversity of races in rust populations, which eventually enabled her to discover and catalogue the wheat species and cross-species resistant to stem rust. |
She published 45 scientific papers on stem rust fungi and 11 research summaries. In 1929, she became a charter member of the Canadian Phytopathological Society and became one of the editors for the journal "Phytopathology". Newton identified physiologically distinct races of "Puccinia graminis" and focused on determining their genetic structure, physiology, origin, and life cycle. She investigated stripe rust on wheat and barley and wheat leaf rust, and the environmental factors on disease expression in wheat plants. She also researched the genetic structure of wheat rust pathogens. |
The research attracted global attention, particularly from scientists in grain-growing nations dealing with productivity losses from stem rust. She was by this time internationally regarded as an authority on plant rusts, and represented Canada at scientific conventions in the United States, Europe, and Russia. Her research was economically significant, as it was used to develop rust-resistant wheat cultivars and resulted in a "reduction of annual losses of wheat due to rust from 30 million bushels to practically none". Wheat rust is no longer a significant problem in Canada. |
In 1933 the Government of the Soviet Union, worried about persistent crop losses caused by stem rust, invited Newton to Leningrad at the behest of Nikolai Vavilov to "train fifty carefully selected students in the problems of rust research". She was there for three months, during which she enjoyed a privileged status similar to a Russian official, and was shown every phase of plant research conducted at the Lenin Academy of Agricultural Sciences. Vavilov had attempted to lure her to work in Leningrad in 1930 by offering a generous salary, technical support, and a camel caravan for travel. |
Her continued exposure to stem rust spores exacerbated a respiratory ailment, which would lead to an early retirement in 1945 and a move to Victoria. Farmers petitioned on her behalf for the Government of Canada to grant her a full pension, as she had "saved the country millions of dollars". |
In retirement, she continued to share her expertise, travelling to Russia and Africa to assist in rust mitigation programs, and attending conventions and conferences. In 1950, she attended the International Botanical Congress in Sweden and the International Federation of University Women conference in Switzerland. |
She became active in women's groups and tended a garden at her home, and had active hobbies including birdwatching and canoeing. |
Newton died in Victoria on 6 April 1971. |
Newton earned many awards and honours throughout her life. In 1942, she became the second woman to be elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada (FRSC) after Alice Wilson. She was awarded the Flavelle Medal from the Royal Society of Canada in 1948, the first person to graduate from an agricultural college to receive the award, and the only woman to have earned that distinction. |
In 1956, the University of Minnesota gave her an Outstanding Achievement Award, presented by her Ph.D. advisor Elvin Stakman, and on 13 May 1969 the University of Saskatchewan gave her an honorary Doctor of Laws (LL.D.) degree. In 1964, the University of Victoria completed construction of the first phase of a residence complex for female students; one of the four-storey buildings was named "Margaret Newton Hall" in her honour. The others were named for Emily Carr, David Thompson, and Arthur Currie. |
On 1997 September 22, she was registered in the Persons of National Historic Significance, a register of people designated by the Government of Canada as being nationally significant in the history of the country. A plaque was installed at the Fort Garry campus of the University of Manitoba to recognize this honour. Newton was inducted to the Canadian Science and Engineering Hall of Fame in 1991. On 17 July 2008, she was inducted into the Manitoba Agricultural Hall of Fame, and a plaque in her honour was erected in Portage la Prairie and officially revealed in a ceremony attended by her relatives and "representatives from grain research centres". |

= = = Leroy "Sugarfoot" Bonner = = = |
Leroy Roosevelt "Sugarfoot" Bonner (March 14, 1943 – January 26, 2013). Born in Hamilton, Ohio, about 20 miles (32 km) north of Cincinnati in 1943, Leroy Bonner grew up poor, the oldest of 14 children. After running away from home at 14, he wound up in Dayton, where he connected with the musicians who would form the Ohio Players. |
The band's lineup changed over the years, but its instrumentation and sound remained basically the same: a solid, driving groove provided by guitar, keyboards, bass and drums, punctuated by staccato blasts from a horn section. |
Assisted by Roger Troutman and his Zapp brethren, Sugarfoot went solo in 1985 with "Sugar Kiss"—the same year Zapp released "The New Zapp IV U" (featuring "Computer Love"), while Shirley Murdock was on the verge of scoring with the Troutman-produced "As We Lay". |
Vocals were a secondary consideration. "We were players," Bonner told "The Dayton Daily News" in 2003. "We weren't trying to be lead singers." The core members of the band did not originally sing, he explained, but "we got so tired of having singers leave us that we decided we'd just do the singing ourselves. I used to play with my back to the audience in the old days,” he added. "I didn't want to see them because they were distracting. Then the first time I turned around and opened my mouth, we had a hit record with "Skin Tight". That's amazing to me." |
He died on January 26, 2013, from cancer in his hometown of Trotwood. |
