          Appeal No. 2001-1787                                                        
          Application 09/374,122                                                      

               In light of the foregoing, the decision of the examiner to             
          reject claims 1 through 4 under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) as anticipated           
          by Handweller is not sustained. The examiner’s decision to reject           
          claim 5 under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) as anticipated by Sprowls is               
          also not sustained. Thus, the decision of the examiner is                   
          reversed.                                                                   

                                      REVERSED
