Appeals from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
Before FAGG, WOLLMAN, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.


1
This appeal has been submitted on the briefs.  Having considered the record and the parties' submissions, we agree with the district court's analysis.  We conclude that no error of law appears in the district court's order and that an extended discussion is unnecessary.  We also decline to consider the arguments appellants raise for the first time on appeal.  We thus affirm for the reasons stated in the district court's order.  See 8th Cir.  R. 47B.
