SOHO/LASCO observed two (2) halo CMEs on May 22, 2013.  The first event 
(A) is seen in C2 beginning 09:12 UT with a bright loop with cavity and
core over the West.  The event expands with extensions PA 189 - 15 for
a total width of 186 degrees wide.  The event continues into the C3
field beginning 09:54-15:54 UT where it leaves the field of view in the
West.

Time/height measurements were marked at 7 points in C2 with speeds of
519.5 Km/sec at pa 303 degrees. The event is marked to 13 points in C3.  
Speeds average through both fields to 595.3 Km/sec at PA 303 degrees.
Acceleration 20.41 m/sec^2. 

SDO AIA 193 shows an eruption of an area at location [N13, W61] East of
AR 11745.  This eruption produces a dimming around the area and a wave
of material in the NW quadrant and across NCH.  
304A shows flaring on disk East of AR 11745 and darkening across the
location of the eruption.

STEREO: BEACON data
COR2 A,  08:54-12:24 UT Bright expanding loop over the NE producing
an asymmetric halo.
Preliminary time/height measure gives 705.1 km/sec velocity at LE.
EUVI A 195, 07:25-09:25 UT a CME over the East limb with wave along
the limb in the NE quadrant.  A post arcade follows.
COR2 B, 09:54-13:54 UT, a partial halo over the East.
Preliminary time/height measure gives 688.4 km/sec velocity at LE.
EUVI B 195, n/a

The observation of this event is considered 'GOOD'. This CME is determined FRONTSIDED.
