PER CURIAM:

              Lenardo   Rodrikus    McGee        appeals    from    his    117-month

sentence.      He contends that the district court erred in declining

to vary from the advisory Sentencing Guidelines range on the basis

of the harshness of the Guidelines’ 100:1 crack-to-powder cocaine

ratio.

              McGee’s claim is barred by our prior decision that a

sentencing      court   cannot     vary    from     the     advisory      Sentencing

Guidelines range based on a disagreement with the sentencing

disparity for crack and powder cocaine offenses. See United States

v. Eura, 

, 633-34 (4th Cir. 2006), petition for cert.

filed,   __    U.S.L.W.   __   (U.S.      June    20,   2006)      (No.   05-11659).

Accordingly, we affirm McGee’s sentence.                   We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before the court and argument would not

aid the decisional process.



                                                                            AFFIRMED
