UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT

*ROBERT L. MILLER,

		Plaintiff-Appellant,

v.

MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, Commissioner of the Social Security Administration,

		Defendant-Appellee.	

No. 06-5174
(D.C. No. 05-CV-245-FHM)
(N.D. Okla.)	

ORDER AND JUDGMENT**

Before BRISCOE, McKAY, and GORSUCH, Circuit Judges.

	Robert L. Miller appeals the district court’s affirmance of the decision of the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration denying his application for supplemental security income payments. 
	Mr. Miller claimed disability beginning February 20, 2003, due to status post spinal meningitis, hypertension, and reduced vision.  The Administrative Law Judge (“ALJ”) denied benefits after finding that Mr. Miller did not have a severe impairment or combination of impairments as is required at step two of the five‑step evaluation process.  See 20 C.F.R. § 404.1520 (describing five-step evaluation process).  The Appeals Council considered the new medical evidence Mr. Miller submitted after the hearing but nonetheless affirmed the ALJ’s decision.  We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), and we affirm.  
	In this appeal, Mr. Miller has raised the same issues he raised in the district court, namely that the Commissioner (1) failed to make a proper evaluation at step two of the sequential evaluation process, (2) failed to fully and fairly develop the record, and (3) improperly assessed his credibility.

	Mr. Miller’s arguments are without merit.  In its well-reasoned order, the district court thoroughly analyzed each of Mr. Miller’s claims using the same standard of review that governs our review, see Aplt. App. Vol. I at 16-17, and we find the district court’s analysis and conclusions to be persuasive on each point, id. at 18-22.  Accordingly, we see no reason to repeat the district court’s analysis, and we affirm for substantially the same reasons set forth in the district court’s order.
