Before BYE, BOWMAN, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Jerad Brunskill appeals the District Court’s1 adverse grant of summary
judgment in his employment-discrimination suit. After de novo review, see Johnson
v. Blaukat, 453 F.3d 1108, 1112 (8th Cir. 2006), we conclude that summary judgment
was proper for the reasons stated by the District Court. Accordingly, we affirm. See
8th Cir. R. 47B.
                       ______________________________


      1
      The Honorable Robert E. Larsen, United States Magistrate Judge for the
Western District of Missouri, to whom the case was referred for final disposition by
consent of the parties pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c).
