VAN SICKLE, District Judge.

Steven Paul Bemdt and David John Asmussen appeal various aspects of their convictions and sentencing. Asmussen contends that the evidence was insufficient to convict him, the district court 1 erred by imposing a two-level Guidelines enhancement for obstruction of justice, and that the district court miscalculated the amount of the loss to the victims for sentencing purposes. Bemdt claims the district court erred by imposing a fine and restitution against him. We affirm the convictions and sentences.
