            Appeal No. 2007-0358                                                                              
            Application 10/873,477                                                                            
                   For these reasons, we affirm the examiner’s 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) rejection.                  


                   Other Issues                                                                               
                   Claims 10 and 11 were added by amendment during prosecution on June 28,                    
            2005.  It appears from the record that the examiner did not consider whether these                
            claims are supported in the disclosure, as originally filed.  In the event of continued           
            prosecution, the examiner should consider the written description requirement of                  
            35 U.S.C. § 112, ¶1 for the full scope of claims 10 and 11.                                       






















                                                     16
