   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  14-3559
   Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Benton and Shepherd, Circuit Judges] 
   Petition for Review - Immigration. The numerous contradictions and 
   inconsistencies in petitioner's evidence went to the heart of her claim, 
   and the IJ did not err in finding her not credible; the IJ properly used 
   claimant's demeanor to buttress an analysis that, as the BIA explained, 
   satisfied the IJ's obligation to provide specific and cogent reasons to 
   disbelieve claimant's testimony; claimant failed to prove past persecution 
   and that she was a refugee under 8 U.S.C. Sec. 1101(a)(42), and the IJ and 
   BIA did not err in denying her application for asylum, withholding of 
   removal and CAT relief; motion for remand to the BIA to seek voluntary 
   departure denied.
