SUPERNOVAE 2003en-2003ev
     Several additional apparent supernovae have been reported.
Objects 2003en and 2003eq-2003eu were reported by L. G. Strolger,
Space Telescope Science Institute (on behalf of the GOODS Treasury
Team and the Hubble Higher-z Supernova Team; cf. IAUC 8125), from
'Hubble Deep Field North' ACS images, and each was detected in four
z-band, two i-band, and two v-band images taken within 45 min of
each other (all ACS magnitudes below are z-band).  SNe 2003eo was
reported by W. M. Wood-Vasey et al. (cf. IAUC 8130) from unfiltered
NEAT images.  SNe 2003ep and 2003ev were reported by M. Papenkova,
D. Weisz, and W. Li from unfiltered LOTOSS/KAIT images (cf. IAUC
8135).  Each offset given below is that from the center of the
nearest visible galaxy to the apparent supernova.

VARIABLE STAR NEAR MCG +07-36-33
     Weisz and Li also report the LOTOSS/KAIT discovery of a
possible supernova (mag about 18.6 on June 1.4 UT, 18.3 on June
2.4, and 18.1 on June 3.4; fainter than 19.0 on May 22.4) located
at R.A. = 17h44m07s.72, Decl. = +40o52'51".6 (equinox 2000.0),
which is 9".5 west and 48".9 north of the nucleus of MCG +07-36-33.
