// ## Vertical Align
//
// **Note:** his method can cause elements to be blurry due to the element being placed on a “half pixel”. 
// A solution for this is to set its parent element to preserve-3d. Like following:
//
//  .parent-element {
/     -webkit-transform-style: preserve-3d;
//    -moz-transform-style: preserve-3d;
//    transform-style: preserve-3d;
//  }

  -ms-transform: translateY(-50%);
  transform: translateY(-50%);
