SUPERNOVAE 2003hg, 2003hh, 2003hi, 2003hj, 2003hk, 2003hl

     Several additional apparent supernovae have been reported from
     unfiltered CCD images -- 2003hg, 2003hh, 2003hk, and 2003hl by M.
     Moore and W. Li (via LOTOSS/KAIT; cf. IAUC 8182), and 2003hi,
     2003hj, and 2003hk by T. Boles (cf. IAUC 8179).  The tabulated data
     below for 2003hg, 2003hh, and 2003hl are from Li, the rest from
     Boles.
