SUPERNOVA 2010jm
     Ivica Pletikosa and Filip Novoselnik, on behalf of the "La Sagra Sky
Survey" (LSSS) Supernova Search Team (which also includes Denis Vida, Ivica
Skokic, David Gostinski, Robert Gregic, Salvador Sanchez, Jaime Nomen,
Reiner Stoss, Bill Yeung, Juan Rodriguez, and Miguel Hurtado), report the
discovery of an apparent supernova (magnitude 17.4) on three CCD images
(limiting mag about 20.0) taken on Nov. 2.923, 2.935, and 2.947 UT with a
0.45-m telescope.  The new object is located at R.A. = 3h46m03s.55, Decl. =
+12d42'15".5 (equinox 2000.0), which is 3".4 east and 4".1 north of the
nucleus of the presumed host galaxy.  Additional approximate magnitudes for
2010jm (from unfiltered LSSS CCD images unless otherwise noted):  1988 Nov.
18.436, [22 (Digitized Sky Survey, red plate); 2010 Oct. 15.101, [20; Nov.
5.009, 17.4; 5.034, 17.5.  The LSSS image from Nov. 2 has been posted (with
