When I checked the kiosk movies today I saw that the edge of the Sun is ringed by prominences. And the face of the Sun is littered with filaments. If you check out the kiosk movie in the 304 band (http://sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov/data/aiahmi/latest.php?t=aia_0304&r=1024), you will an enormous eruption at 2 o'clock, quiescent prominences at 3, 5, and 7 o'clock, another eruption at 8 o'clock, and something interesting at 10 o'clock. With the 15-minute cadence of the kiosk you see flickering on the face as filaments erupt and move into space. A few small C-class flares happened over the weekend, but the prominence and filaments were the real show over the Labor Day weekend. https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6369594138980582994-6678165476897319158?l=sdoisgo.blogspot.com
