Before FAGG, HEANEY, and WOLLMAN, Circuit Judges.
                          _____________


PER CURIAM.


     Sandra Dickens appeals the judgment entered by the district
court affirming the Secretary's decision denying Dickens disability
and supplemental security income benefits. After careful review of
the record and the parties' briefs, we conclude the Secretary's
decision is supported by substantial evidence on the record as a
whole. Because an opinion by this court would have no precedential
value, we affirm the district court without further discussion.
See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
