    December 10, 1997
    Per Curiam.  After careful  review of the briefs and the
    record,  we are  not  convinced  that  the  magistrate  judge
    committed  any error.   We will  not second-guess  the weight
    accorded  to  the evidence  or  the  credibility due  to  the
    witnesses.  The  magistrate judge's findings  and conclusions
    were  adequately  detailed,  supported by  the  evidence, and
    consistent   with  the  applicable  law.    See  Clemente  v.
    Carnicon-Puerto Rico Management Assoc., 
    52 F.3d 383
    , 389 (1st
    Cir. 1995).
    Affirmed.  See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1.
