Before WOLLMAN, Chief Judge, FAGG and BOWMAN, Circuit Judges.
                             ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Terry Lynn Harris appeals the district court's denial of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983
action, alleging various correctional officers violated his Eighth Amendment rights by
failing timely to administer medication and by using unreasonable force constituting
cruel and unusual punishment. Having carefully reviewed the record and the parties'
briefs, we conclude extended discussion is not required and affirm for the reasons
stated in the district court's thorough opinion. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

      A true copy.

            Attest:

                     CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.
