        Awesome spectacle as a prominence to the northwest of
active region 8126 erupts.  Ejection begins at 07:23 UT, followed
by a rapid eruption at 09:20 UT.  Arcade begins by 09:37 UT, and
a prominence even farther north erupts explosively at the same 
time. Emission fragments from this eruption can be seen in Fe XII,
from 09:30 to 12:00 UT.  The image at 11:04:26 UT is particularly
amazing.
        Filament to the north-north-east of active region 8129 
erupts as well, completing sweep of the north polar crown (at 
least in the visible hemisphere).
        Another amazing event at 17:23 UT, M2 in flaming loop
in active region 8124 on the southwest limb.  Then active region
8130 rips loose at 18:38 UT, with moreton wave to the south and
southeast.  The wave appears to break and form an arcade 
northwest of the region, trailing active region 8129.  Remnants
of northern prominence eruptions can still be seen.
