          SAADAT, Administrative Patent Judge.                                        
                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
               This is a decision on the appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134(a)              
          from the Examiner’s final rejection of claims 1-12, 14-16 and 22-           
          29.  Claims 13 and 17-21 have been withdrawn from consideration             
          as being drawn to a non-elected invention.                                  
               We affirm.                                                             



                                         -1-
