          Application No. 09/408,042                                                 

               In summary, we note that the decision of the examiner to              
          reject claims 1, 3 through 8, 11 through 14 and 16 through 20              
          under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) as being anticipated by Dominguez has             
          not been sustained.  In addition, the decision of the examiner to          
          reject dependent claim 9 under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) has not been             
          sustained.  Accordingly, the decision of the examiner is                   
          reversed.
