Where do i find some AS3 resources for a Newbie to AS3, not to programming

I'm a fairly experienced Web Developer. I know the LAMP stack, I can work with Javascript from a procedural level. What I'm looking for is a good resource for someone without previous Action Script experience to get his head in the game. These days for JS I usually just use jQuery and it solves most all of my UI needs. However, as time goes on, I see that I need to enhance my skill set by learning to at-least do the most rudimentary things with flash via AS3. I've worked with C, C++, Java, C# within educational settings. I know what objects are, strict typing, even generic classes, stacks, queues etc.

Not long ago, I've answered a question similar to yours.
Maybe for you Haxe is actually the right choice.

other than that, check out actionscript.org

It depends on how much time you have and how much you want to learn. You could start with the official developer guide from http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/devguide_flex3.pdf

http://www.adobe.com/devnet/actionscript/ is not a bad starting point

If you want books then the following are good:

http://www.amazon.com/Essential-ActionScript-3-0-Colin-Moock/dp/0596526946

http://www.amazon.com/ActionScript-3-0-Cookbook-Application-Developers/dp/0596526954

There is also ActionScript Design Patterns book, which is supposed to be nice.
