Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Linval A. Blair appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment to his former employer and dismissing his em- ployment discrimination complaint. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accord- ingly, we affirm substantially on the reasoning of the district court. See Blair v. Colonnas Shipyard, Inc., No. CA-98-1360-2 (E.D. Va. July 7, 1999). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma- terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
