We have improved upon our previous search technique of systematically searching QSO spectra for narrow galactic H \alpha emission , which indicates a foreground galaxy within the Sloan Digital Sky Survey ( SDSS ) spectral fiber .
We now search for H \alpha plus eight other galactic emission lines in the same manner .
We have scanned the SDSS DR7 QSO catalog spectra searching for these emission lines .
Here we present our sample which focuses on the redshift range z < 0.401 where galactic H \alpha is detectable in the SDSS spectra .
This has revealed 27 unique galaxies on top of QSOs ( GOTOQs ) .
We have deblended the QSOs from the respective galaxies and determined the photometric properties of these systems .
We find upon deblending that most of the galaxies are primarily blue , late-type galaxies with colors in the range -0.71 < ( u-r ) < 2.07 .
We find a slight anti-correlation between reddening and impact parameter ( E ( B-V ) _ { ( g - i ) } vs. b ) .
The galaxies have average star formation rates of 0.01 to 1 M _ { \sun } yr ^ { -1 } , with an average of 0.6 M _ { \sun } yr ^ { -1 } .
They range in z from 0 to 0.4 and in stellar luminosity from about 0.01 L ^ { \ast } to 3.0 L ^ { \ast } .
They are foreground to QSOs of brightness 17.4 to 20.4 magnitudes ( r-band ) with impact parameters of 1 to 10 kpc .
They represent a fair sample of typical galaxies for which it should be possible to determine accurately various quantities ( e.g .
abundances , dust extinction , Faraday rotation ) using follow-up analysis of the background QSOs .

Where present , Ca II \lambda 3934 ( K ) and Na I \lambda 5892 ( D2 ) absorption lines were also measured in the QSO spectrum .
We find 15 systems with Ca II K absorption and 6 with Na I D2 absorption .
We find no trends relating the equivalent widths of these lines to impact parameter or reddening of the background QSO .
Eight of our fields show significant reddening ( E ( B-V ) _ { ( g - i ) } > 0.20 ) , which are targeted for followup studies of interstellar clouds .
We find three systems ( Q0059-0009 , Q1033+2059 , and Q2356+0029 ) with detectable galactic spectral emission , but no visible galaxy in imaging and no detectable absorption features .
We speculate on the nature of these galaxies , which are strong candidates for dark galaxies and dwarf halos .
