                Application No. 10/812,027                                                                    

                                                    Conclusion                                                
                      In summary, we have sustained the Examiner’s rejections of claims 1,                    
                3, 5 through 17, 23, 24, 25, 28, 30, 31, 33 through 38 and 40 through 44                      
                under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a).  However, we have not sustained the Examiner’s                      
                rejections of claims 18 through 22, 26, 27, 29 and 39 under 35 U.S.C.                         
                § 103(a).  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).
