PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals the district court's order granting Defen- dant's motion for summary judgment on her complaint alleging age discrimination, defamation, and retaliation. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Russell v. VBR, No. CA-96-1431-A (E.D. Va. June 30, 1997). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten- tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
