         Appeal No. 2003-1513                                                       
         Application No. 09/326,412                                                 

                                      Summary                                       
              In summary, we reverse the examiner’s rejection under 35              
         U.S.C. § 112, ¶1, of appealed claim 22 as lacking written                  
         description.  We affirm, however, the rejection under 35 U.S.C.            
         § 103(a) of appealed claims 19, 20, and 22 as unpatentable over            
         Boyd in view of Baker.                                                     
              The decision of the examiner is affirmed.                             
              No time period for taking any subsequent action in                    
         connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR                   
         § 1.136(a).
