A. J. Drake, S. G. Djorgovski, A. Mahabal, M. J. Graham, and R. Williams,
California Institute of Technology; M. Catelan, Pontificia Universidad
Catolica de Chile; E. C. Beshore and S. M. Larson, Lunar and Planetary
Laboratory, University of Arizona; and E. Christensen, Gemini Observatory,
report the CRTS discovery of nine confirmed supernovae and two apparent
supernovae in unfiltered images from the Catalina Sky Survey (CSS) 0.7-m
telescope and the 1.5-m Mt. Lemmon Survey (MLS) telescope, with the
discovery observations tabulated below.  The spectroscopic types tabulated
below were from observations made with the Boller and Chivens CCD
Spectrograph on the 2.4-m Hiltner telescope at MDM Observatory between Jan.
8 and 15 UT; cross-correlation was made with a library of supernovae
spectra using the SuperNova IDentification code (SNID; Blondin and Tonry
2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024), and the spectra reveal the following redshifts:
2009ns z = 0.05; 2009nu, 0.04; 2009nv, 0.09; 2009nw, 0.14; 2010I, 0.06;
2010J, 0.17; 2010K, 0.02; 2010L, 0.07; 2010M, 0.06.

(Arkansas City, KS, U.S.A.) using the "Light Buckets 3" (LB3) 0.3-m telescope

     I. K. W. Kleiser, J. M. Silverman, S. B. Cenko, and A. V. Filippenko,
University of California, Berkeley, report that inspection of CCD spectra
(range 350-1020 nm), obtained on Jan. 16 UT with the 3-m Shane reflector (+
Kast) at Lick Observatory, shows that 2010K is a type-II supernova.  The
hydrogen Balmer lines have well-developed P-Cyg profiles, although the emission
component of H-alpha greatly dominates over the absorption component.
Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra using the SNID code
indicates that 2010K is most similar to the type-IIP supernova 2004et at about
10 days past maximum brightness.  After removal of the host-galaxy recession
velocity of about 6000 km/s, determined from narrow emission features, the
absorption minimum of the H-alpha line is found to be blueshifted by about
10200 km/s.
