                Application No. 10/324,660                                                                        

            1          We also sustain the rejections of claims 6, 9, 17, and 20 as being                         
            2   unpatentable over Kaneda in view of Iwai, McPhail and Pavloski, and claims                        
            3   5 and 15 as being unpatentable over Kaneda in view of Iwai, McPhail and                           
            4   Kikuchi since Appellants have not challenged these rejections with any                            
            5   reasonable specificity apart from the rejection of claim 11 (see In re Nielson,                   
            6   816 F.2d 1567, 1572, 2USPQ2d 1525, 1528 (Fed. Cir. 1987)).                                        
            7                                                                                                     
            8                                     SUMMARY                                                         
            9          The decision of the Examiner to reject claims 1, 3-11, and  13-21 is                       
          10    AFFIRMED.
