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

PER CURIAM.

       Burton Phillips appeals his fraud-related convictions. Having carefully reviewed
the record, we reject Phillips's contentions. The record contains substantial evidence
on which the jury reasonably could have found Phillips guilty of the charges. We
believe a discussion of Phillips's fact-intensive arguments would serve no useful
precedential purpose. We thus affirm Phillips's convictions. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
