It's at the top (the sun's north pole) where the rotation is least, you can see a solar prominence and then there's a vortex created like a lump of circulating gas. Looking at this video that's not the only place on the sun that's active right now. From now on my hyper links are just text.

Perhaps. Astronomers are finding that stellar activity overall is as unique as each star itself. The larger ones have a shorter lifespan and form and burn out again rather quickly compared to the vast age of the universe. On the other hand, a yellow dwarf star like the sun lasts much longer, but it's been around a long, long time already, so changes are not out of the question. At this juncture, relative to what some stars do, our sun, while active, is relatively stable.
