          Before KIMLIN, WARREN and PAWLIKOWSKI, Administrative Patent                
          Judges.                                                                     
          KIMLIN, Administrative Patent Judge.                                        
                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
               This is an appeal from the final rejection of claims 1, 4-8,           
          16, 18 and 19.  Claims 12-14, the other claims remaining in the             
          present application, stand withdrawn from consideration.                    
               Claim 1 is illustrative of the subject matter on appeal and            
          a copy of this claim is appended to this decision.                          
               The examiner relies upon the following references as                   
          evidence of obviousness:
