Breaking: possible supernova in nearby spiral M95

I just learned that there's a possible (but nearly certain) supernova on the rise in the relatively nearby spiral galaxy M95. This is exciting, because it should get bright enough to spot in small telescopes! By coincidence, Mars happens to be sitting in the sky very close to the location of M95; that makes it easier to find in that you have an obvious landmark in the sky, but tougher because Mars is so close and so bright it swamps the region with light! Right now, the supernova is still at roughly 12th magnitude, making it too faint to see without bigger 'scopes, or smaller ones with digital cameras. However, it was only discovered on March 16, so it's most likely going to get brighter. The galaxy itself is about magnitude 9 or 10, so the supernova may get that bright. There are quite a few pictures of the galaxy+supernova on Flickr, but most are copyrighted aren't free license so I can't post them here. However, searching the site for "M95 supernova" yielded a few of them. You can also find a list of links here. I think this one in particular is cool; it has bright lines going across that's scattered light from nearby Mars! However, by a funny coincidence (?), the European Southern Observatory chose a Very Large Telescope image of M95 as its Picture of the Week just this morning:
