               Respondent.



                      On Petition for Review of an Order of the
                          Board of Immigration Appeals

                             Submitted September 13, 2010 **

Before:        SILVERMAN, CALLAHAN, and N.R. SMITH, Circuit Judges.

       Parvinder Kaur, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the

Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing her appeal from an

immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying her application for asylum and

withholding of removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We deny

the petition for review.

        The BIA adopted and affirmed the IJ’s decision including the IJ’s adverse

credibility determination. See Abebe v. Gonzales, 432 F.3d 1037, 1040 (9th Cir.

2005) (en banc) (where the BIA cites its decision in Matter of Burbano, 20 I. & N.

Dec. 872 (BIA 1994), and does not express any disagreement with any part of the

IJ’s decision, the BIA adopts the IJ’s decision in its entirety).

        In her opening brief, Kaur fails to raise any challenge to the agency’s

dispositive adverse credibility determination. See Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94

F.3d 1256, 1259-60 (9th Cir. 1996) (issues not specifically raised and argued are

deemed waived). Accordingly, Kaur’s asylum and withholding of removal claims

fail.

        PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
