It's much simpler than you think:

<div class="background">
  <div class="container">
    <div class="span-12">...</div><div class="span-12 last">...</div>
  </div>
</div>

.background { anything you want, it's the width of the browser by default; }

if you want .background to just be a bit wider than .container, you can do:

.background { width:950+Xpx; margin:0 auto; }
