NOT FOR PUBLICATION. (See Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure Rule 36-3)

Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals.
Before FERNANDEZ, RYMER, and WARDLAW, Circuit Judges.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.

present previously unavailable, material evidence. This is an independent ground for denying a motion to reopen. 8 C.F.R. § 3.2; INS v. Doherty, 502 U.S. 314, 323, 112 S.Ct. 719, 116 L.Ed.2d 823 (1992). Because Calle has waived a challenge on this basis, see Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d 1256, 1260 (9th Cir.1996), we summarily affirm.
In any event, Calle's arguments are foreclosed by Ram v. INS, 243 F.3d 510 (9th Cir.2001).
PETITION DENIED.
