Trump announces delay of tax deadline for virus victims
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump announced Wednesday night that he will instruct the Treasury Department to allow individuals and businesses negatively affected by the coronavirus to defer their tax payments beyond the April 15 filing deadline.
In an address from the Oval Office, Trump said he would use his emergency authority to allow individual taxpayers ad businesses to defer paying their taxes by next month's deadline if they have suffered adverse effects from the spreading virus.
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin told Congress earlier Wednesday that the payment delay would have the effect of putting more than $200 billion back into the economy that would otherwise go to paying taxes next month. He did not indicate what the new deadline would be.
Mnuchin told reporters that the delay would cover "virtually all Americans other than the super-rich."
He said the delay would not apply to large corporations or very wealthy taxpayers but he did not offer any specific income or asset thresholds that would be needed to qualify for the delay.
Mnuchin told a House Appropriations subcommittee that the administration could grant the tax delay without having to go to Congress for approval.
Mnuchin said the delay would allow individuals to not pay their taxes by the April 15 deadline. The IRS would also waive interest payments or other penalties for missing the deadline.
Under current IRS rules, taxpayers can get an automatic extension on filing their tax returns but they are required to pay tax on the estimated amount they will owe when they do file.
Members of Congress have urged the administration to take this step amid the coronavirus crisis.
"Given the growing nationwide concerns regarding the potential spread and the resulting economic and public health impact of such an outbreak, we urge you to act quickly and remove one source of stress that individuals face during the crisis," Sens. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., and Patty Murray, D-Wash., said in a letter to IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig.
"The American people should not have to worry about filing IRS forms in the middle of a public health emergency," the two senators wrote.
In addition to using emergency authority to allow taxpayers who have been affected by the virus to defer their taxes, the president said, effective immediately, he would have the Small Business Administration start providing low-interest loans for businesses in states and U.S. territories that have been affected by the virus.
He said these loans would help small businesses overcome the economic disruptions that have been caused by the virus. In addition, he said he would request that Congress boost this loan pool by providing an additional $50 billion in funding for the SBA.
Trump said he would also take emergency action to provide financial relief to allow working Americans who have been affected by the virus to stay at home if they are ill, quarantined or taking care of others dealing with the coronavirus.
He said he would ask Congress to provide additional funding for this worker relief.

Okay so I probably know the answer but I'd like to double check. I bought the Legendary Edition of Skyrim back when it was on sale and I'm now a werewolf. I can't access any perk tree for it in werewolf form. Do I actually have to activate the Dawnguard DLC in game in order to access the perk tree... 7/07/2012 · While in werewolf form, hit B, and that should bring up the wolf tree with perks to choose. I was wondering this myself, until I stumbled on it by accident. Hope this is what you're looking for. I was wondering this myself, until I stumbled on it by accident.
This Elder Scrolls V: How To Become A Werewolf guide will tell you how to catch the deadly Lycanthropy and become a fanged stalker of the shadows. Becoming a Werewolf is very simple stuff in Skyrim, you can either be bitten by finding a natural one in the wild, quite a painful task, or you can follow a quest line to have the opportunity.... First of all, in order to become a werewolf you need to join and complete quests in the companion's guild (located in Whiterun). When you become a werewolf you get a from called beast form.
I've been trying to find a way to implement phoneme mapping to the werewolf race.. I started out by grabbing the phoneme animation files for the hagraven race, converting them to .kf followed by vast editing in NifSkope to make them affect only the jaw bone of the werewolf. So when I converted them back to .hkx using the werewolf skeleton.hkx and testing them in the Creation Kit, the model... Unlike vampirism, in Vanilla Skyrim, being a werewolf had no motivation for transforming, especially later on as there was no downside for not transforming. This mod appears to address that and changes how you play. I am definitely checking it out.
About this mod. This mod features the return of the Sanies Lupinus disease from Morrowind, moon based werewolf transformations (5 settings), new transformation animations (4 settings) with an easy to use configuration ring.
The appearance of the werewolf in Skyrim is that of a large wolf-like humanoid creature with razor sharp claws and a set of large teeth. Unlike the more wolf-faced look of the Bloodmoon werewolves, the werewolves of Skyrim have monstrous faces and muscular builds.
The idea behind this build is to create a character whose only strength and power comes in werewolf form. In human form you use no shouts, no armor, weapons, magic, stealth, etc. Inspired by this build, your character has no skills and doesn't level up.

Hey readers! Welcome to this week's mortgage tech rundown, where we learn of the newest products, latest integrations and partnerships, and more in the mortgage, real estate and financial technology space.
Technology-driven solutions provider Informative Research has added a new offering to its collection of products. The new product, CreditXpert Wayfinder, automatically identifies a step-by-step plan of actions that a borrower can use to increase their credit score.
This week, independent mortgage lender Guild Mortgage has announced a strategic partnership with Homebot, a personalized dashboard that enables a lender's loan officers to give homeowners insights into their finances related to their home.
Guild explained in a press release that the partnership empowers loan officers to offer borrowers relevant data and economic insights and stay connected with homeowners in a meaningful, personalized way long after the mortgage transaction has closed.
Maxwell unveiled a new disclosure management platform that enables borrowers to securely access, review and sign loan disclosure documents directly within the Maxwell experience. The company's launch partner for the new disclosure platform is document, eSign, eClose and print fulfillment technology provider Docutech.
"While digital mortgage technology has vastly improved the mortgage experience in recent years, disclosures have long remained a detractor for borrowers in an otherwise streamlined lending experience," said Lindsay Hunt, head of product at Maxwell. "We're thrilled to continually remove complexity for borrowers and the lending teams they work with every day."
The new disclosures platform enables borrowers working with Maxwell-empowered lenders to review and sign disclosures directly in Maxwell from a computer, tablet or smartphone, according to the company.
"Our goal has always been to create a centralized, relationship-driven mortgage experience so that borrowers receive a consistent digital experience from application to clear to close," said John Paasonen, Maxwell's co-founder and CEO. "Our partnership with Docutech takes us one step closer to that goal by allowing us to offer an efficient, compliant loan origination process that meets the expectations of digitally savvy borrowers."

Few Star Wars scenes are guaranteed to stir fans' hearts more than the ultimate confrontation between Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker in "The Empire Strikes Back." What could possibly make it any better? How about some cats? YouTube user Pasdidée reshot the famous scene using a couple of house cats, named it "The Empire Scratches Back" and posted it on Sunday.
Pasdidée presents the shot-by-shot remake in a split-screen form so you can marvel at how accurately it compares with the movie version. The two black and white cats emote as well as can be expected. Even the props are right on. A sisal cat-scratching post fills in for the pole Luke hangs onto during his dramatic conversation with Vader.
The final cry of despair from fur-Luke really brings the scene home. Pasdidée notes that the open-mouth effect was achieved by boring the cat into yawning.
The fuzzy actors occasionally receive an assist from their human, who holds up a paw to simulate Vader's fist-shaking move. Anybody who has ever tried to get a cat to perform on demand will appreciate the time and care that went into the scene remake.


Technical SEO Best Practices – New (free) ebook!
TL;DR: I wrote a technical SEO ebook. It's free. You should get it here.
You're probably all wondering where the hell I've been. I haven't written a blog post in, what, four weeks?!
I've been working on two projects. The first one is a free ebook: Technical SEO Best Practices.
It's also not bad if you're a novice-intermediate SEO and looking to learn.
PS: My second project launches next week. It's another free ebook.

The timeline is also a 'living archive', giving access to some of these key documents. You can quickly and easily add an item to the timeline by using the web form on this page - and together we will build a valuable resource for research and action over the coming decades.
Farmer First Revisited
In the context of current complex and urgent needs for agricultural innovation, effective research and development systems and efficient adaptation methods are required in both advanced and developing economies. This book, published twenty years after the original 'Farmer First' reviewed experiences offarmer-led innovation in agricultural research and development and detailed some practical examples of agricultural innovation by farmers as innovators, especially in developing countries. The authors engage with the concept of innovation systems, which provide an important contribution to innovation capabilities when they support farmers' participation, knowledge sharing and learning, and link to networks with external organizations. At the same time, the book emphasizes the continuing importance of power dynamics in shaping and constraining opportunities for farmer-led innovation, as evidenced by experiences across the world.
Introduction of the German Council for Sustainable Development
In April 2001 the Council for Sustainable Development, consisting of 15 councillors, was set up by the German Federal Government in order to contribute to implement the National Sustainability Strategy. It has since been mandated to advise the Federal Government on all items of the sustainability strategy, to propose concrete action plans and projects, and to communicate the aspects of sustainability in the public. It takes environmental, social and economic aspects equally into consideration. It carries out regular studies on sustainability issues in different fields. In 2009 it published a critical analysis of German sustainability policy, reviewed by international experts. It uses different instruments such as regular publication, speeches and lecture series as well as an award for discussing the topic in public.
Dow Jones Sustainability Index in 1999
Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) is the longest-running of its kind, built by Sustainability Asset Management (SAM) and Dow Jones Index in 1999. A family of different indexes, its goal focuses on providing a clear standard to investors interested in corporate performance around environmental, economic and social goals, increasingly regarded by many investors as key not only to corporate social responsibility but also the creation of long-term value. The DJSI World index evaluates the performance of the 2,500 largest companies from 58 different areas in 52 countries, whilst other indexes cover specific geographical regions. This and indexes like it are seen as a key mechanism in encouraging firms to keep improving their sustainability performance.
UN World Summit on Sustainable Development – Johannesburg (2002)
The world summit on sustainable development was held by United Nations in Johannesburg, South Africa from 26 August to 4 September in 2002. It was a follow-up conference of the 'Earth Summit' which was took place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1992. Agenda 21 was a major achievement of the Earth Summit – an unprecedented plan to improve people's lives and conserve our natural resources for reaching global sustainable development in the 21st century.
The major purpose of the Johannesburg summit was to provide an opportunity for the leaders of the day to specifically identify the goals and understand how to implement Agenda 21. At the same time, side and parallel events also took place near Johannesburg in order to further share experiences among participants. The summit received thousands of participants from varied fields, including heads of State and Government and other representatives from non-governmental organizations. The Johannesburg Plan of Implementation, which emerged from the summit, called for partnerships between the public and private sector in realising Agenda 21.
African Union S&T Consolidated Plan of Action
The African Science and Technology consolidated plan (herby, referred to as ASTCPA) came about as a result of the first African Ministerial Conference on Science and Technology (AMCOST) in 2003. It aimed to consolidate S&T programmes from the African Union (AU) and New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD). The conference saw participating countries commit to increasing public spending on R&D to a minimum of 1% of GDP within 5 years.
Through this it was hoped that the continent would enhance its capacities to fight diseases, eradicate poverty and stem environmental degradation, and improve economic competitiveness. It was also hoped that development and use of science and technology from R&D would lead to the socio-economic transformation of the continent and its integration into the world economy. The consolidated plan of action highlighted a focus on the development of capacity building, knowledge production, and technological innovation in order to achieve this transformation.
This was a significant event as it was the product of the decisions from the first AMCOST. It marks the intention of the continent to move beyond aid, and achieve self sustaining growth. It also marks the intention of African countries to move away from the historical reliance of importing existing technologies, highlighting its intentions to begin stimulating the internal development of technologies and technological capabilities.
Center for Scientific Studies (CECS) in Chile
The Center for Scientific Studies (CECS) was founded in 1984 as the first independent scientific research organization in the history of Chile, and has become an important centre for science in Chile and Latin America. CECS was founded by Chilean theoretical physicists and biologists who had established careers abroad but chose to return to Chile to contribute their skills to the development of their country.
Investigations in the field of Glaciology and Climate Change at the CECS are notably innovative as well as their scientific expeditions to the Antarctic territory. To some extent the Center has arguably reshaped thinking about the role of science in development in Chile and Latin America. The CECS has incorporated the military force as a support to science research, while also holding a democratic view of society. The Center has contributed to the decentralization of the country due to the decision to move and settle down in Valdivia, a small city 800 km (to the south) from the capital city Santiago.
The Center is led by the physicist Claudio Bunster, who, together with his team have helped develop private-public partnerships in order to obtain financing for the institution. Scientists from Latin America and all around the world visit the Centre for their research. The Center has an internal organization based in horizontal relations and mutual support between researchers.
It has been an excellent example of an institution demonstrating that from the South of the world it is possible to produce science of a very first level. In recent years the Center has been involved in a new challenge of greater support and development of applied sciences, beyond their traditional strength in basic sciences. CECS research is funded by competitive funding from the National Fund for Scientific and Technological Development (FONDECYT – Fondo Nacional de Desarrollo Científico y Tecnológico) and other national and international agencies.

Q: Factorial related sum I noticed the following (nice!) identity:
$$
S_n:=\sum_{k=1}^n k!k = (n+1)!-1.
$$
Of course it can be proved by induction, but I was curious if there is a direct way co compute it. My first try has been with Euler Gamma function:
\begin{aligned}
S_n &= \sum_{k=1}^n k\int_0^\infty\mathrm{d}t\, e^{-t}t^k \\
&= \int_0^\infty\mathrm{d}t\, e^{-t}\sum_{k=1}^n k t^k\\
&= \int_0^\infty\mathrm{d}t\, e^{-t}\frac{(n t-n-1) t^{n+1}+t}{(1-t)^2};
\end{aligned}
then I have some difficulties to go on. Any ideas?

A: Note that $$k!k = k!(k+1-1)=(k+1)!-k!.$$ See how well the sum telescopes and everything cancel!

A property builder has been penalised for faulty construction in Sector 9. As per reports, residents of Crystal plaza in Sector 9 reported that the builder and his partners promised to provide facilities like CCTV cameras, Video door phone, Earthquake resistant construction, garden and some more facilities. The plaza has 24 flats out of which 20 are occupied. As per the residents, they have not been provided with the promised facilities. Apart from this, when they started living in the flats, they discovered that water was oozing out of the ceiling. RCC work is very faulty in all the flats.
They even complained that 1300 rupees are taken per month for maintenance which is never done. The builder had given the responsibility of maintenance to someone who did not bother to look into maintenance at all. Consumer Forum has henceforth penalised the builder for faulty construction.

The handling of public finances in North West province a great shame
Press Article:
The Ad Hoc Committee of Parliament inquiring into the intervention in the North West Provincial Government in terms of section 100 of the Constitution was briefed by National Treasury, Auditor-General, Premier of the North West province and the MECs of the six departments under administration on the fiscal position and governance and financial management of the province.
ACDP Member of Parliament Cheryllyn Dudley today said that, "The handling of public finances in the North West province is a great shame and sadly the people of the North West are the ones who suffer the consequences. The ACDP shares concerns that the Office of the Premier was able to centralise services that should be performed by provincial departments without being called on it, instead of doing its job of monitoring and evaluating what it was implementing.
The ACDP acknowledges the committee's observation that "a lack of consequence management for irregular, fruitless and wasteful expenditure, particularly in the five departments that are currently under section 100 (1) (b) intervention, through-out the years which has led to the escalation of incidents of irregular expenditure and fruitless and wasteful expenditure."
The ACDP calls on portfolio committees in all provincial legislatures, councillors in the municipal councils, and the portfolio and select committees of Parliament to strengthen their oversight in line with lessons learned from this unacceptable situation.
As the committee has said, "there should be focused political will and commitment in monitoring and oversight and the provincial leadership should take responsibility and create a culture in which accountability can be restored and strengthened in the province."
The ACDP appreciates the positive approach of the new Premier in the province which was also detected in the presentations. This we expect, will assist the committee in its task of monitoring the intervention on a regular basis."

Grace Awards 2011 Winners – in Faith Based Fiction
On May 10, 2012 May 11, 2013 By NikeChillemiIn Grace Awards 2011, Winners42 Comments
The Grace Awards, the most democratic awards in Christian fiction, is very proud to announce its 2011 WINNERS. We've tried to use, if you will, a separation of powers in choosing our winners.
Readers nominated (via email) the finalists in six categories. An individual who is not an author and who doesn't sit on the Board counted the nominations. Finaling titles were then given to judging teams. At that point there was no contact between the teams and the Chair of the Board, except for administrative issues. The teams independently picked winners. Each step in the process was removed and separated from the next step, to insure impartiality.
We are thrilled that our winners include self-published works, titles from small houses, as well as from moderate and large traditional houses. Our finalists included titles from traditional houses, small press, self-published authors and ebook publishers. Our aim was to be an egalitarian award, and we believe we've accomplished this right out of the gate.
Women's Fiction: serious women's issues, can have humor and suspense elements
WHEN SPARROWS FALL by Meg Moseley (Multnomah Books)
It's rare for an author to be able to capture a reader's attention up to the final the final word, and Meg Mosely's WHEN SPARROWS FALL does just that. With language and imagery that are never contrived, she weaves Miranda Hanford's and her brother-in-law Jack's tale with depth and poignancy. This book presents two ends of the Christian spectrum, the strictness of Miranda's faith juxtaposed with her brother-in-law's more liberal, mainstream construct. Never was either character condemned for his or her beliefs. This kind of book is highly needed for the Christian community, and for those caught up in "Christian-like" communities on the fringe. The writing was perfect—the plot unfolds logically and uniquely and leaves the reader praying in gratitude for God's mercy and grace, as well as hoping for more of the book. Though it could have been an advocacy for home-schooling, the author resisted while showing the characters as sympathetic and concerned for doing what is right. This book is everything executable and desirable from the Women's Fiction category—realistic, warm and likeable characters in a truly human drama that strengthens faith. The writing was superb, deftly and lightly handled so that the entire Women's Fiction judging team got caught up in the story.
~~Judges: Deborah Kinnard (Team Leader), Carol McClain, Christine Lindsay
GIVE THE LADY A RIDE by Linda Yezak (Port Yonder Press)
The story began with action and stayed at a great pace throughout. Each scene successfully drove the plot forward, was believable and full of conflict. The author established setting early on using great imagery and sensory skills. GIVE THE LADY A RIDE stayed true to ranch life and all things cowboys. Not only was it entertaining, but the details of bull-riding provided interesting information a reader could take away from the story. The author's characters stood out by being well-described physically, emotionally, and spiritually. There were no questions of their motives, which drove them to behave in a believable way—even at their low points. The two female characters' sisterly bond sometimes made the reader laugh out loud. Minor characters were used appropriately—not simply as filler but to help the main characters either see truth or deter them, adding increased conflict. Yezak's prose was well written, beautifully edited and her voiced shined. Each character had a clear and unique voice. The dialogue was believable and appropriate for the characters and the scenes. The romance had plenty of tension and was highly enjoyable. It read easily, without confusion, or having to skim back over a paragraph to figure something out. Obviously, a great amount of research went into the book in the areas of estates, wills, ranch life, and bull-riding.
~~Judges: Jessica R. Patch (Team Leader), Janalyn Voight: Rachel Wilder:
GOODBYE NOEL by Nike Chillemi (Desert Breeze Publishing)
The pacing proved perfect for romantic suspense—even when there was no imminent danger, the threat hung over two people as they fell in love. Ms. Chillemi's writing is strong and well-researched. Readers are drawn into the 1940s with the setting and descriptions. The depth of detail in setting and character not only show exceptional skill but make it worthy of all the praise it has received. Katrina Lenart is a pediatric nurse and part of the close-knit Czechoslovakian community on the poor side of town. Detective Ian Daltry's deep love for his daughter brings out his hero qualities almost immediately. Katrina is devoted to protecting the baby whose mother has been killed; Ian is determined to protect Katrina. Their romance is done in a sweet, respectful manner. The mystery of who killed Noel Bauer develops in twists and turns, presenting a number of possible murderers. The setting is perfect for the crime and all the dialog and action fit exactly with the time period. The lasting impression of GOODBYE NOEL is the way people treat others who are different: lower social standing, less well-off financially, or of a different culture. It rings true for then and remains true today. In many ways, this story points out what's bad about today's society by showing the evils in a harsher light of a past setting.
~~Judges: Tammy Doherty (Team Leader), V.B. Tenery, Debra E. Marvin
Spec Fiction: science fiction, horror, fantasy, etc.
SPLIT SENSE by Barbara Ellen Brink (Create Space)
At the risk of sounding cliché, one awesome read! This speculative thriller is full of action, intrigue and a touch of science fiction. The plot twists and turns as we follow the lives of fraternal twins – a brother and sister, each of whom has an unexplainable, seemingly supernatural, gift. Adopted separately as infants, neither knows of the other's existence until fate brings them together to combat a complex web of deceit and subterfuge that centers around a pharmaceutical company that has been conducting secret experiments on humans. Ms. Brink draws the reader in almost immediately and the surprises keep coming, right up to the very end. From a Christian perspective, the gospel is clearly presented but it never impedes the story or becomes preachy. As well, the supernatural events are woven in seamlessly and are not over explained, allowing a certain sense of mystery to prevail even after the conclusion. If you're not a speculative fan already, you will be after reading SPLIT SENSE. It's well written on every level and deserves its place in the 'Grace Awards' winner's circle.
~~~Judges: Tracy Krauss (Team Leader), April W. Gardner, Randy Streu
Action Adventure/Western/Historic Epic Fiction (exploits, quest, expansive):
SHADOWED IN SILK by Christine Lindsay (WhiteFire Publishing)
The story is a page-turner packed with action, suspense, and romance. This is an evocative story of life, death, struggle, intrigue, and love during the post-World War I, Raj period of India's history. The research done on the time period was outstanding. The descriptions of Indian life, lush and detailed. The author placed main characters Abby Fraser and Major Geoff Richards in an impossibly difficult situation. Inadvertently Abby becomes involved in the machinations of a Russian spy dedicated to stirring up unrest in India. Not only do Geoff and Abby face personally excruciating choices, but the safety of both the British and Indian populations hangs in the balance. The reader enters into what life was like in the 1900s in India with British and Indian characters who are three dimensional, highly believable, and well developed. The reader gets a wonderful glimpse of the world of missionaries and native-Christian life in India at that time. SHADOWED IN SILK has enough twists and surprises to keep the reader up into the wee hours of the night.
~~Judges: Nike Chillemi (Team Leader), Krisi Kelley, Keven Newsome
THE MERCHANT'S DAUGHTER by Melanie Dickerson (Zondervan)
Today's Young Adult reader avidly conquers pages of mysticism, brutality, hedonism, and evil the likes of which would burn Nancy Drew's titian hair right off. It's a new generation. The judges enjoyed the great conversation this engaging novel stimulated. THE MERCHANT'S DAUGHTER by fairy-tale spinner Melanie Dickerson was, in our opinion, extremely readable and appropriate in voice to the genre. Word choice, characters, and scene were well delivered. The historical elements were true. The characters, scenes of medieval England, drama, and events were period-faithful and easily understood. Faith elements were woven consistently throughout the tale, and the parallel to Beauty and the Beast lovingly underscored.
~~Judges: Lisa Lickel (Team Leader), Diana Sharples, Barbara Ellen Brink

Grace Awards 2011 Reader Nominations Ended at Midnight on Leap Year
On March 1, 2012 August 12, 2012 By NikeChillemiIn Grace Awards 2011, Grace Awards Reader NominationsLeave a comment
The Grace Awards polls opened on December 31st at midnight, 2011 with our cyber New Year's Eve party. So, it might be poetic that they end on February 29th at midnight, 2012 on Leap Year.
We've had many more than twice the number of reader nominations for the Grace Awards 2011 Finalists than we did last year.
Finalists in six categories: Women's Fiction, Contemporary Romance/Historical Romance, Suspense/Thriller/Mystery/Romantic Suspense/ Detective Series, Speculative Fiction, Action Adventure/Western/Historic Epic Fiction, and Young Adult.
Since the nominating process is entirely up to inspirational literature readers, it's sort of like making sausage…a crazy experience at times. Although there were many, many more entries than last year, some received only one vote. Yet, even a novel receiving one or two votes can be grateful for the readers who took the time to vote.
We are still counting votes and the cream is rising to the top. We will release the titles and authors of FINALISTS on March 3rd.
Three finalists in each category will be determined by the number of reader nominations received in those categories.
Grace Awards 2011 Winners will be selected by a panel of three judges in each category. Winners will be announced on May 10, 2012.
Novels released in 2011 who received reader nominations came from a wide variety of publishing houses: White Rose Publishing, Desert Breeze Publishing, David C. Cook, Lamp Post Inc., Trestle Press, Love Inspired, Whitefire Publishing, Port Yonder Press, Revell, Two Shoes Publishing, Create Space, Zondervan, Splashdown Books, Zonderkidz, Sword of the Spirit Publishing, Thomas Nelson, NavPress, Living Ink Books, Bethany House, Vinspire Publishing, Xulon Press, as well as others.

Q: Bootstrap fixed container with parent width I'm developing a web with bootstrap 3.0 and it has the following structure:
- Sidebar: width 220px, position fixed and top:0
- Content: margin-left:220px (Because of the sidebar width).
     - Topbar: position fixed and top 0

The problem is that the fixed topbar doesn't get parent width, you can see my css in this codepen: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/Fzgot
The topbar is on .main-content header {}
As you can see I added width:inherit, but it doesn't seem to work

A: Is this close to what you are after?
http://www.bootply.com/75880
I added
width:100%;
max-width:760px; /* set max width as req'd */

to the .main-content header section


Can you believe the Problem Child is growing up? The vines are getting older and with that comes complexity. Consistently Zinfandel dominant, the wine screams out with rich ripe fruit that is constrained by the addition of Syrah and Mourvédre. These additions provide a savory component that is matched with smoked meats and the pleasing aromatics of toast. Delicious today, but can cellar for 7 years. $62/btl.
This brilliant Grenache dominated wine has ripe, naturally acid-driven fruit, providing a backbone of epic proportions. The Mourvèdre and Syrah help round out the acid and make the wine less of a fruit bomb and more of an experience. Aged in 350L French barrels, the wood adds soft vanilla and smoke to an already delicious wine. Drink now or cellar for 8 years. $78/btl.
Planting my own vineyards has been one of the best experiences in my life. My respect for farming, winemaking and Mother Nature will never be the same. 100% Estate, aged in a mix of concrete and puncheons, this wine is a liquid photograph of my experiences. Take my best vineyard blocks of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvedre and let them tell the story. Naturally higher in tanning, I age the wine for one extra year in bottle. Simply amazing! The wine is drinking great now but can cellar for 10 years. $84/btl.
A gorgeous wine that tells the story of pursuit. A 100% estate wine that starts its life in concrete. Whole-cluster syrah is co-fermented with Grenache and Mourvedre. Left on the skins for 35 days, the wine exhibits dark complexities of fig, liquourice and dried sage. This is the second vintage of this wine and I believe a wine with this structure will last for a decade or more. $68/btl.
