          Claims 6, 11 and 18 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as                 
          being unpatentable over Gold.  Claim 26 stands rejected under

          Claims 5 and 16 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being

               Rather than reiterate the arguments of Appellant and the

               After a careful consideration of the record before us, we
