	/**
	 * Cairngorm provides a singleton Cairngorm Event Dispatcher that works with the Front Controller class. 
	 * Whenever you want to dispatch Cairngorm events, you use the Cairngorm Event Dispatcher. 
	 *
	 * The following code shows how to broadcast a Cairngorm event using 
	 * the Cairngorm Event Dispatcher: 
	 *
	 * <code>
	 *	var evt:YourEvent = new YourEvent( YourEvent.NAME_OF_EVENT );
	 *		evt.dispatchEvent();
	 *</code>
	 *
	 * The dispatchEvent() method of the Cairngorm Event Dispatcher singleton takes a parameter of 
	 * type flash.events.Event. This event is dispatched and the corresponding command is executed.
	 *
	 * This is how the Front Controller, Cairngorm Event Dispatcher, Command patterns, and 
	 * Cairngorm Events work together with the Cairngorm Event, the Model Locator, and VO 
	 * patterns to create an immersive experience for the user of an RIA.
