AFFIRMED.
Before MURNAGHAN and WILKINS, Circuit Judges, and SPROUSE, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM

1
Appellant appeals from the magistrate judge's* order affirming the Secretary's termination of benefits.  Our review of the record and the magistrate judge's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit.  Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the magistrate judge.  Difato v. Shalala, No. CA-93-1336-B (D. Md. Jan. 6, 1994).  We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED

*
 The parties consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 636(c) (1988)
