Introduction
On October 12th, new magnetic flux begun to emerge in the middle of the negative polarity region of active region 11112. This emerging flux continued to grow over the next few days stressing the already existing fields and presumably building up magnetic energy. A few days later, on October 16th, the pent up energy was finally released through an M class flare. The region went on to produce a few C class events before rotating around the limb but in a sense its master work was over. This nugget concerns this M class flare which was simultaneously observed by [RHESSI] and SDO. In this nugget, we will focus on the AIA observations which are unique due to the fact that this is the first flare for which AIAs automatic exposure control was enabled. In a future nugget, we will take a look at the SDO EVE observations, a subject which we have already visited in a previous Nugget.
