            Appeal No. 2001-2568                                                       
            Application No.  09/178,848                                                

                 In view of the above, we reverse the rejections.                      
                 II. The rejection of claims 2 through 8 and 10                        
            through 19 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over                
            Fogelson in view of Liou and further in view of Ohsawa.                    
                 In light of the fact that we reversed the rejection of                
            claims 1 and 9 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable                 
            over Fogelson in view of Liou, we also reverse this                        
            rejection because Ohsawa does not cure the aforementioned                  
            deficiencies of Fogelson in view of Liou.                                  
                 III. Conclusion                                                       
                 Each of the art rejections is reversed.                               
                                       REVERSED
