Before MURPHY, COLLOTON, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
                          ___________

PER CURIAM.
      Ikechi Kallys Albert appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary
judgment in his action asserting employment discrimination, retaliation, and state law
claims. After reviewing the record de novo, viewing the evidence and all reasonable
inferences from it in a light most favorable to Albert, see Jacob-Mua v. Veneman, 

, 520 (8th Cir. 2002) (standard of review), we conclude summary judgment
was proper for the reasons stated by the district court. Accordingly, we deny Albert’s
pending motions and we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                          ______________________________

      The Honorable Paul A. Magnuson, United States District Judge for the District
