PER CURIAM.


       Minnesota inmate Leon Carter appeals from the order of the District Court1
dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. The District Court concluded that Carter
failed to state an Eighth Amendment claim, and the court declined to exercise
jurisdiction over Carter’s state-law claims. After careful de novo review, we affirm
for the reasons given by the District Court. See Blankenship v. USA Truck, Inc., 601


      1
        The Honorable James M. Rosenbaum, United States District Judge for the
District of Minnesota, adopting the Report and Recommendation of the Honorable
Franklin L. Noel, United States Magistrate Judge for the District of Minnesota.
F.3d 852, 853 (8th Cir. 2010) (reviewing de novo the district court’s dismissal for
failure to state a claim, accepting the allegations in the complaint as true and affording
the plaintiff all reasonable inferences that can be drawn from those allegations); see
also Stone v. Harry, 

, 914 (8th Cir. 2004) (explaining that pro se
complaints are to be liberally construed but noting that "they still must allege
sufficient facts to support the claims advanced").
