 * Hi,
 * I have the W3 Total Cache plugin installed in order to improve the performance
   of my site and had noticed that suddenly the theme’s layout was broken. I tracked
   it down to the CSS minification setting of the W3 Total Cache plugin. When I 
   enable minification, the layout fills the entire screen and essentially breaks
   as per [this screenshot](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/11087865/Screenshot%202014-02-20%20at%208.43.19%20PM.png).
 * For the time being, I have disabled minification, but I would strongly prefer
   to leave it on. I run another blog that uses this same plugin with the exact 
   same settings and this does not happen over there, so I have to assume the problem
   is specific to this theme.
 * Any idea what’s going on?
 * Thx.
