          examiner has indicated that claims 2, 3, 9 and 10 stand                     
          allowed. Accordingly, the appeal as to those claims is                      
          dismissed, leaving for our consideration on appeal claims 4

          13 through 20, 24 through 29 and 33 through 40 have been                    
          canceled.
