               Application No. 09/930,258                                                                                           


                       We conclude that the Examiner has established a prima facie case of anticipation with                        
               respect to the subject matter of claims 1, 4, 5, 7, 8, and 10 which has not been sufficiently                        
               rebutted by Appellants.                                                                                              


                                                         CONCLUSION                                                                 
                       To summarize, the decision of the Examiner to reject claims 1, 4, 5, 7, 8, and 10 under                      
               35 U.S.C. § 102(b) is affirmed.
