... The 209 candidates were selected from our first and second priority samples introduced in Paper IV. Of 169 first priority candidates, 141 objects appeared in our list as new ones. 28 objects were listed in the NED as galaxies or objects from various catalogs with known redshifts and some of them already had information on emission lines in earlier publications. ... The ``random selected sample'' was created to access the fraction of BCGs in the second priority list and contains 43 objects. ...

ST ScI Preprint #1397 . ... In 2/3 of the BL Lac images, host galaxies are detected, including nearly all for z 0.5 (58 of 63). ... The highest redshift host galaxy detected is in a BL Lac object at z = 0.664. ... The host galaxies of the radio-selected and X-rayselected BL Lac objects are comparable in both morphology and luminosity, strongly suggesting that nuclear properties do not have a dramatic effect on large-scale host galaxy properties, or vice versa. ...

... In one situation, we can use light from quasars to probe the material between us and them because that light may pass through one or more galaxies or gas clouds on its way to us. The gas inside the galaxies or the intergalactic clouds acts then as a filter, absorbing selected wavelengths from the quasar light. ... Light from a quasar must pass through clouds of gas and even faint galaxies -- each leaving its imprint on the light -- before we receive it here on Earth. ... Gravitational lensing . ...

We present the results of a mini-survey for associated H I 21-cm absorption at z 0.42 with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope. Our targets are radio galaxies, selected on the basis that the 1216 luminosities are below L UV 10 23 W Hz -1 , above which there has never been a detection of 21-cm absorption. ... In the case of the detection, the absorption only occurs towards one of the two resolved radio lobes in PKS 1649-062. ...

... Galaxies with polar rings (PRGs) are a unique class of extragalactic objects, consisting of a ring or disk of gas, stars and dust orbiting in a plane nearly perpendicular to the disk of a central galaxy. ... At present, there are only about two dozen kinematically confirmed galaxies in this PRG class, mostly from the Whitmore et al. (1990) catalogue, based on photographic images. ... Examples of object from our catalogue SPRC (=SDSS-based Polar Ring Catalogue). ...
