SUPERNOVAE 2006my IN NGC 4651
     V. Stanishev, Physics Department, Stockholm University, reports that
a spectrum of SN 2006my (cf. CBET 727), obtained on Nov. 10.25 UT with
the Nordic Optical Telescope (+ ALFOSC; range 350-900 nm) by T. B. Nielsen,
shows it to be a type-II supernova similar to SN 1999em at 1-2 months after
maximum.
