We  have carefully reviewed the record                      __________            and  the  briefs of  the  parties  and  summarily affirm  the            judgment of  the district  court for essentially  the reasons            stated in  the recommended decision of  the magistrate judge.            The  district court  adopted the  reasoning of  this decision            when it  dismissed appellant's complaint, and  we, too, think            that reasoning is persuasive.  Appellant's motion for summary            disposition is therefore denied.                      Affirmed.  See 1st Cir.
