Before BYE, BOWMAN, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Norman L. Miller appeals the district court’s1 order affirming the denial of
disability insurance benefits (DIB). Upon careful review of the record, see Pate-Fires
v. Astrue, 564 F.3d 935, 942 (8th Cir. 2009) (standard of review), we find no basis for
reversal, see Pyland v. Apfel, 149 F.3d 873, 876 (8th Cir. 1998) (to qualify for DIB,
claimant must establish disability predating expiration of his insured status). We
decline to consider issues Miller did not raise during the administrative process or in

Court for the Western District of Missouri.
the district court. See Steahr v. Apfel, 151 F.3d 1124, 1126 (8th Cir. 1998).
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
