You are missing your colons (:).

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
  padding: 0 5%;
}

You're missing the colons (:) in your #wrapper declarations. It should be:

  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
  padding: 0 5%;

Just to add to what the other people have said, you are also missing the semi-colon for text decoration. Cheers! :)
