              JEFFREY T. SMITH, Administrative Patent Judge.                                                              


                                            REMAND TO THE EXAMINER                                                        
                     Upon careful review of the record in this appeal, we determine that this                             
              application is not in condition for a decision at this time.  Accordingly pursuant to our                   
              authority under 37 CFR § 41.50(a)(1)(2004), we remand this application to the                               
              jurisdiction of the Examiner for an action consistent with our remarks below.                               
                     In the answer, the Examiner maintains a 35 U.S.C. § 103(a)                                           
              rejection of appealed claims 1 to 9, 11 and 24 over Gluckstein, U.S. Patent No.
