Before BOWMAN, BEAM, and LOKEN, Circuit Judges.
                          ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Allen Lampkin appeals from the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary
judgment in his employment discrimination lawsuit against his former employer. Upon
de novo review, we agree with the district court, for the reasons expressed in its order,
that Lampkin failed to demonstrate Stroman’s stated reasons for his termination were
a pretext for discrimination, or Stroman’s engaged in retaliatory behavior. See Whitley
v. Peer Review Systems, Inc., 221 F.3d 1053, 1055 (8th Cir. 2000).

      1
        The Honorable G. Thomas Eisele, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Arkansas.
      Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We deny Stroman’s pending
motions on appeal.
