more galaxies and more dust

In between talks by KG Lee (MPIA), Bovy, and Farrar (NYU), Mykytyn and I continued to work on the Atlas measurements, and Kapala and I looked some more into the relationship between Herschel dust maps and PHAT extinction measurements on luminous stars. The latter is quite a mess and we can't figure out what parts of the mess are problems with the star fitting or real variance in the extinction, and what parts of the mess are problems with the star fitting or real correlations between star and dust properties. We discussed with Groves.
