'Wheel of Fortune' contestant has epic win
On "Wheel of Fortune" Wednesday, a contestant named Emil turned two letters into $45,000 during the bonus round. His luck (skill? clairvoyance?) shocked host
Pat Sajak and thrilled the Internet.

After being given the letters "R, S, T, L, N, E" and selecting the letters "H, M, D, O," Emil had only "N" and "E" to work with on the final puzzle, a
three-word phrase which was simply described as a "thing." Sajak advised him to just talk it out.

"You're a very good puzzle solver, but I don't know," Sajak said. "You have 10 seconds. Keep talking. Maybe the right thing will pop out. Good luck."

Emil nailed it on his first try: "New baby buggy."
His shock that he had guessed it caused Emil to utter, "Oh, my God," jump in the air and grab his heart. Sajak jokingly patted him down (perhaps for some
sort of secret puzzle-solver device) and said, "I'm rather stunned!"

The host later tweeted "Tonight's 'Wheel of Fortune' features most amazing solve in my 30+ years on the show. No kidding." The video of the win has since
gone viral.

'Divergent' not as diverting as it should be
An anti-intellectual bias permeates the dystopian Divergent (** 1/2 out of four; rated PG-13; opening Friday nationwide).


A faction of erudite folks are attempting to rid the world of those who think for themselves.


Based on Veronica Roth's popular young adult trilogy, Divergent covers well-trod turf that brings to mind The Hunger Games, The Matrix and a slew of other
post-apocalyptic tales. Ironically for a film about non-conformity, it adheres to the playbook rather slavishly.


Set in a futuristic Chicago, the population is divided into five factions: Abnegation, Amity, Erudite, Candor and Dauntless. It sounds lofty, but if
somebody's personality doesn't fall into one of these categories, they are left marginalized and homeless.


The faction system is not only limiting, but rather cursorily conceived — at least on a titular basis. For one, two factions are described by adjectives and
three by nouns
