Before BOWMAN, MELLOY, and SMITH, Circuit Judges. ___________ PER CURIAM.

Eugene Butler appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary judgment in his employment-discrimination action. Butler’s general challenge to the entry of summary judgment fails, as the record supports the district court’s determination. See Forrest v. Kraft Foods, Inc., 285 F.3d 688, 691-92 (8th Cir. 2002); Habib v. NationsBank, 279 F.3d 563, 566-67 (8th Cir. 2001); Hanenburg v. Principal Mut. Life Ins. Co., 118 F.3d 570, 573 (8th Cir. 1997). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
