               This is an appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134 from the final                   
          rejection of claims 1-14, which are all the pending claims.                   


                                  REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM                                  
               The appellants have indicated (Brief, page 4) that, for the              
          purposes of this appeal, the claims stand or fall together.                   
          Accordingly, all the claims will stand or fall together, and we               
          will select claims 1 and 2, the broadest claims, as representative            
          of all of the claims on appeal.  Note 37 CFR § 1.192(c)(7).  See
