claim 1 and make general assertions regarding the novelty of the claims (Br.
21-23; Reply Br. 14-15). Therefore, based on the teachings of the references
outlined supra, and to the extent claimed, we find ourselves persuaded by
the Examiner’s reasoning and sustain the 35 U.S.C. § 103 rejection of claims
40, 41, and 43-46 over Farros ‘810 and Farros ‘686.
CONCLUSION
In view of the foregoing, the decision of the Examiner rejecting
claims 1, 3-5, 10-19, and 23-46 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is affirmed.
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).
