AS3 + AMFPHP + MySQL character set fix
To avoid charset issues when pulling from a MySQL database using AMFPHP:

1. Find the line in your gateway.php where the setCharsetHandler is set.

2. Modify the default to:
$gateway->setCharsetHandler("mbstring","UTF-8","UTF-8");
This setting worked best for me, but for more in depth info, check out:

Amazon S3 + bulkloader = use a LoaderContext!
In an attempt to save you hours of painful debugging and Adobe-hating: if you're wanting to use the excellent AS3 bulk-loader lib to load assets from S3, follow these steps. Especially step 2.

1. Put your normal crossdomain.xml in place in your S3 bucket

2. Use a loader context on every BulkLoader !
```
 var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext(true, ApplicationDomain.currentDomain); 
 var loader:BulkLoader = new BulkLoader("loadmystuffplskthxbye");
 loader.add( someS3Url, { context: context  } ); // WIN 
```
