Here's kind of a wacky idea - what if the week "name" was sort of 
watermarked onto the background in very large (i.e. 50pt font) light 
grey text? We could center it no matter where the window was actually 
scrolled to. See attached... I don't know if the week name would be 
"This week" or "3/12 - 3/18" or what.. if we want to get fancy, we could 
even make next week say "Next week" and last week say "Last week"

The only bummer would be that for busy calendars the watermarking would 
obviously be mostly obscured.

not sure if its a good final idea, but perhaps mimi can come up with a 
variation that makes more sense. :)
