                                                SUMMARY                                                       
                      The Examiner has not adequately shown that the claims are                               
                anticipated or obvious over the applied prior art.  We therefore reverse the                  
                anticipation and obviousness rejections.  However, we affirm the provisional                  
                double patenting rejection.                                                                   
                      No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with                      
                this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR § 1.136(a).
