“AM” stands for the Latin phrase Ante Meridiem —which means “before noon”—and “PM” stands for Post Meridiem : “after noon.” Although digital clocks routinely label noon “12:00 PM” you should avoid this expression not only because it is incorrect, but because many people will imagine you are talking about midnight instead. The same goes for “12:00 AM.” You can say or write “twelve noon,” “noon sharp,” or “exactly at noon” when you want to designate a precise time.
It is now rare to see periods placed after these abbreviations: “A.M.”; but in the US, in formal writing it is still preferable to capitalize them, though the lower-case “am” and “pm” are now so popular they are not likely to get you into trouble. The lower-case forms are standard usage in the UK.
Occasionally computer programs encourage you to write “AM” and “PM” without a space before them, but others will misread your data if you omit the space. The nonstandard habit of omitting the space is spreading rapidly, and should be avoided in formal writing.

What is Graphic Design?
Graphic design is a creative process — most often involving a client and a designer and usually completed in conjunction with producers of form (i.e., printers, programmers, signmakers, etc.) — undertaken in order to convey a specific message (or messages) to a targeted audience. The term "graphic design" can also refer to a number of artistic and professional disciplines that focus on visual communication and presentation. The field as a whole is also often referred to as Visual Communication or Communication Design.
Various methods are used to create and combine words, symbols, and images to create a visual representation of ideas and messages. A graphic designer may use typography, visual arts and page layout techniques to produce the final result. Graphic design often refers to both the process (designing) by which the communication is created and the products (designs) which are generated.
Graphic designers work with drawn, painted, photographed, or computer-generated images (pictures), but they also design the letterforms that make up various typefaces found in movie credits and TV ads; in books, magazines, and menus; and even on computer screens. Designers create, choose, and organize these elements—typography, images, and the so-called “white space” around them—to communicate a message. Graphic design is a part of your daily life. From humble things like gum wrappers to huge things like billboards to the T-shirt you’re wearing, graphic design informs, persuades, organizes, stimulates, locates, identifies, attracts attention and provides pleasure.

Flash tutorial | Creating object instances in Flash
The process of creating an object is known as instantiating the object. In other words, you create an instance of a particular class. Before you can use an object in ActionScript, the object has to exist in the first place. One part of creating an object is declaring a variable; however, declaring a variable only creates an empty place in the computer’s memory. Always assign an actual value to the variable (create an object and store it in the variable) before you attempt to use or manipulate it.
One simple way to create an object instance doesn't involve ActionScript at all. In Flash, when you place a movie clip symbol, button symbol, or text field on the Stage, and you assign it an instance name in the Property inspector, Flash automatically declares a variable with that instance name, creates an object instance, and stores that object in the variable. Likewise, in Adobe Flex Builder when you create a component in Macromedia® MXML™ from Adobe (either by coding an MXML tag or by placing the component on the editor in Design mode) and assign an ID to that component (in the MXML markup or in the Flex Properties view), that ID becomes the name of an ActionScript variable, and an instance of the component is created and stored in the variable.
With several ActionScript data types, you can create an instance using a literal expression, which is a value written directly into the ActionScript code. Here are some examples:
This is Literal numeric value example:
var someNumber:Number = 17.239; var someNegativeInteger:int = -53; var someUint:uint = 22;
This is Literal String value example:
var firstName:String = "George"; var soliloquy:String = "To be or not to be, that is the question...";
This is Literal Boolean value example:
var niceWeather:Boolean = true; var playingOutside:Boolean = false;
This is Literal Array value example:
var seasons:Array = ["spring", "summer", "autumn", "winter"];
This is Literal XML value example:
var employee:XML = Harold Webster ;
Most common way to create an instance for any data type is to use the new operator with the class name, as shown here:
var raceCar:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); var birthday:Date = new Date(2006, 7, 9);
Creating an object using the new operator is often described as “calling the class’s constructor.” A constructor is a special method that is called as part of the process of creating an instance of a class. Notice that when you create an instance in this way, you put parentheses after the class name. Sometimes you specify parameter values in the parentheses. These are two things that you also do when calling a method.
