Eighth-grader Anurag Kashyap of California became the U.S. spelling champ Thursday, beating 272 other spellers in a tough two days of competition. Anurag, 13, of Poway clinched "appoggiatura," a melodic tone, to take home some $30,000 in prizes.

The quiz isn't particularly difficult (can't go making MSN readers feel stupid...), although the last word has come up in the Williamsburg Spelling Bee before.
