PER CURIAM:
Appellant Sarah Arenivas appeals from the denial of social se-
curity disability benefits by the district court. A careful review
of the record, the briefs, and the oral argument before this court
compels the conclusion that the Secretary's decision was supported
by substantial evidence and that the appropriate law was properly
applied, all as set out in the comprehensive opinion of the Magis-
trate Judge below. See 42 U.S.C. § 405(g); Craig v. Chater, 76
F.3d 585, 589 (4th Cir. 1996). Accordingly, the district court's
decision below is affirmed.
AFFIRMED
