                  Application No. 09/793,687

                  14 through 19 and 21 through 24 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 (a).  However, we will not

                  11, 20, 25 and 26 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.  The decision of the examiner is affirmed-in-                    
                  part.                                                                                                     
                  No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with this appeal may be                     
                  extended under 37 CFR § 1.136(a)(1)(iv).
