                Appeal 2006-3069                                                                                   
                Application 10/661,273                                                                             

                                                   DECISION                                                        
                       Based on the findings of facts and analysis above, we conclude that                         
                the Examiner did not err in rejecting claims 1, 3-7, 9-15, and 17-22 under                         
                35 U.S.C. § 102(b) for anticipation. However, we have reversed the                                 
                Examiner’s rejection of claims 1, 3-7, and 17-22 under 35 U.S.C. § 112,                            
                second paragraph.  Because we have sustained at least one rejection for each                       
                claim on appeal, the decision of the Examiner rejecting claims 1, 3-7, 9-15,                       
                and 17-22 is affirmed.                                                                             

                       No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with                          
                this appeal may be extended under 37 C.F.R. § 1.136(a)(1)(iv).                                     
                                                  AFFIRMED
