                  Application No. 09/642,585                                                                                                              
                           In summary:  the examiner’s rejection of claims 1 through 11, 24 and 25 under 35                                               
                  U.S.C. § 103(a) based on Jeffrey in view of Focke has not been sustained, while that of                                                 
                  claims 1 through 11, 24 and 25 under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being unpatentable over                                                      
                  Focke in view of Jeffrey has been sustained.  Since one rejection of all of the claims                                                  
                  before us on appeal has been sustained, it follows that the decision of the examiner is                                                 
                  affirmed.
