                Appeal 2007-1705                                                                             
                Application 10/508,629                                                                       


                      Lastly, we observe that the Responsive Arguments of the Examiner                       
                beginning at page 12 of the Answer have not been challenged or otherwise                     
                traversed by Appellants in the Reply Brief.  Moreover, the Reply Brief                       
                merely repeats the same arguments already presented in the principal Brief                   
                on appeal.                                                                                   
                      In view of the forgoing, the decision of the Examiner rejecting claims                 
                1 through 5, and 7 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).  See 37 C.F.R.
