PER CURIAM:
David James Barrow seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West
1994 & Supp. 2001). We have reviewed the record and the district
court’s opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate
judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a cer-
tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning
of the district court. Barrow v. Angelone, Nos. CA-00-637-2; CA-
00-771-2 (E.D. Va. June 20, 2001). We also deny Barrow’s motion to
strike the affidavit of Henry Allen Thompson, Sr. We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
