                                    _____________

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


PER CURIAM.


     Larry C. Whitmore challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to
support    his   convictions    for    possession   with      intent   to   distribute
methamphetamine    and    possession    with   intent    to   distribute    marijuana.
Contrary to Whitmore's view, the record contains strong evidence of
Whitmore's guilt.       Discussion of the fact-based issues presented by this
appeal    will   serve   no   useful   purpose.     We     thus   affirm    Whitmore's
convictions.     See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
