PER CURIAM.

Wayne G. Elliott, Jr. appeals his conviction on one count of converting union funds to his own use in violation of 29 U.S.C. § 501(c). On appeal he contends that he is entitled to a mistrial as a result of a prosecutor's prejudicial question. He also asserts that the district court1 abused his sentencing discretion by applying a mechanical sentencing approach, which failed to individualize appellant's sentence.
