   denying motion for new trial; issues raised for the first time on appeal
   would not be considered; district court did not err in denying defendant's
   request for a minor role adjustment under Guidelines Sec. 3B1.2(b) in
   light of the evidence showing he played a central role in every aspect of
   the crimes.
