         Appeal No. 2006-1605                                                       
         Application No. 09/470,741                                                 

              It is our view, after consideration of the record before us,          
         that the evidence relied upon and the level of skill in the                
         particular art would have suggested to one of ordinary skill in            
         the art the invention as set forth in claims 15 and 27.                    
         Accordingly, we will sustain the Examiner’s rejection of claims            
         15 and 27.                                                                 
                                       CONCLUSION                                   
              In view of the foregoing discussion, we have sustained                
         the Examiner’s decision rejecting claims 1-9, 12-21 and 23-34              
         under 35 USC 103.  Therefore, we affirm.                                   
         No time period for taking any subsequent action in                         
         connection with this appeal may be extended under                          
         37 C.F.R. § 1.136(a)(1)(iv).
