An Update in Brief

Hi everyone! I don't have much new to say right now, unfortunately - recent weeks have seen the continuation of more work on image subtraction, which seems to be an amorphous, multi-headed beast, growing two new heads each time an old one is severed, eternal, and ever-growing. All that aside, though, I recently finished work on analyzing 2009ig, and we're preparing to move onto a newer, brighter supernova -this one recent enough that observations this year can still yield results, which means I may get to go observing soon! In addition, after preliminary work is finished on the newer candidate, we plan to return to an older candidate that has shown anomalies in dust color. The dust seems to be much bluer than Milky Way dust, and we'd love to be able to find a way to explain that. Besides that, I don't have much new to announce. Thanks again, all!
