MEMORANDUM **

Pinemua Needham Soliai appeals the district court’s sentencing order, alleging that the district court erroneously determined that he had a base sentencing level of 32 rather than a base level of 26. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 , and we affirm.

In contrast to Soliai’s assertion, the district never stated during the plea colloquy that it would base Soliai’s sentence on the overall weight of the mixture rather than on the weight of methamphetamine (actual) within the mixture.
