Before BEAM, LOKEN, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.


     James Vaughns appeals from the district court's1 dismissal of
his employment discrimination and retaliation claims stemming from
his job termination. Having carefully reviewed the record and the
parties' briefs, we conclude the district court's determination
that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction over Vaughns's claims
was correct. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
