          Appeal No. 2004-0387                                                             
          Application No. 09/384,650                                                       

          modify our decision to indicate the rejection of claims 50,                      
          51 and 59 under § 103 over the combination of Higham and                         
          Blechl is reversed.                                                              
                We also modify our decision to indicate that the                           
          statement appearing in the paragraph bridging pages 44 and 45                    
          should read as follows: we conclude the subject matter of                        
          claims 40 to 43, 45 to 47, 49, 52 to 54 and 56 to 58 and 60                      
          to 67 is not patentable over the cited references.  The                          
          subject matter of claims 44, 48, 50, 51, 55 and 59 is                            
          patentable over the cited references.                                            





















                                            -3-
