Before FAGG, WOLLMAN, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.
                          _____________

PER CURIAM.

       Carrie Woods Gray appeals the district court's adverse grant of summary
judgment on Gray's race-based employment discrimination claim. Having reviewed the
record and the materials submitted by the parties, we see no error by the district court.
We also conclude that an extended discussion is unnecessary in this fact-intensive case.
We believe the district court is correct, and we affirm on the basis of the district court's
memorandum opinion and order. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

      Attest:

               CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.
