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.
