                Before THOMAS A. WALTZ, PETER F. KRATZ, and                                                  
                LINDA M. GAUDETTE, Administrative Patent Judges.                                             
                WALTZ, Administrative Patent Judge.                                                          
                                         DECISION ON APPEAL                                                  
                      This is a decision on an appeal from the Primary Examiner’s rejection                  
                of claims 1 through 14, which are the only claims pending in this                            
                application.  Although the action appealed from was a non-final rejection,                   
                we have jurisdiction pursuant to 35 U.S.C. §§ 6 and 134 since these claims                   
                have been twice presented and rejected.  See Ex parte Lemoine, 46 USPQ2d                     
                1420, 1423 (Bd. Pat. App. & Int. 1994).
