	  E Limb	The development of a twisted structure [1] on E
 			continues.

	  S West	Couple of faint ragged fronts start to be discernible
			early on the day.

19:30 UT  E Limb	Faint loop front in the trialing material of [1]. It
			fades throughout C3.

00:30 UT  E Limb	Couple of faint and diffuse fronts preceding the
 			development of events reported to start at 06:25 and
 			08:48 UT, both on E.

03:16 UT  N East	Jet-like front.

06:25 UT  N East	Diffuse jet-like front.

06:25 UT  E Limb	Diffuse and elongated ragged front developing slightly
 			toward ENE. It fades close to the inner edge of C3.

08:48 UT  E Limb	Diffuse loop front ahead of bright front with 
			apparently twisted trailing material.

19:31 UT  E Limb	Asymmetric front (brighter on ENE) in the trailing 
			material of event reported to start at 08:48 UT.
			Blob-like front on ENE, just to N of the northern leg.

2006/05/14 (Sunday)

15:06 UT  E Limb	Very faint and diffuse front that fades throughout C2.

21:54 UT  S East	Relatively bright and wide ragged front, already
 			spanning all the way from ENE up to past the S Pole.
			Extremely faint and diffuse extensions all above the 
			western limb. The N Pole is covered by the faint
			extensions by ~ 22:30 UT. The event is first seen
			in C3 all above the SE Limb, but much brighter on E.
			It quickly fades. The extension on W are barely 
			discernible. No significant X-ray activity recorded by
			GOES during the day (background x-ray flux below the 
			A2 level).
