          Application No. 08/222,913                                                  


               We end by noting that the aforementioned affirmances are               
          based only on the arguments made in the briefs.  Arguments not              
          raised therein are not before us, are not at issue, and are                 
          thus considered waived.                                                     


                                     CONCLUSION                                       
               To summarize, the examiner’s rejection of claims 1-7, 11,              
          and 22-24 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.  Her rejection of              
          claims 12-20 and 25 is affirmed.  Accordingly, we affirm-in-                
          part.
