[Flashcoders] Changing Values Programmatically

Hi;
I have the following code. When 
it runs through BigContainer the second time, for some reason my 
containers disappear and nothing shows on the screen. This happens even 
if I take out my removeChild statements, and that's what's got me 
puzzled. Ideas?

        var start_flag:Boolean = true;
        var start_flag2:Boolean = true;

        function 
BigContainer()
        {
            if(start_flag == false)
            {
                start_flag2 = false;
            }
            if(start_flag == true)
            {
                
LoadImages();
                start_flag = false;
            }
            else
            {
                if(i == 4)
                {
                    i = 1;
                }
                else if(i == 3)
                {
                    j = 1;
                }
                var timeline:TimelineLite = 
new TimelineLite({onComplete:LoadImages()});
                
timeline.append(new TweenLite(container_left, 3, {alpha: 1}));
            }
        }
        
        function LoadImages()
        {
                LoadLeft();
        }
        
        
function LoadLeft():void 
        {
            if(start_flag == 
true)
            {
                container_left = new Sprite();
            } else {
                
big_container.removeChild(container_left);
                
container_left = container_left2;
            }
            
big_container.addChild(container_left)
            var path:String = 
"images/left" + i + ".png";
            var req:URLRequest = new 
URLRequest(path);
            var loader:Loader = new Loader();
            loader.load(req);
            
loader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, 
function(e:IOErrorEvent):void{ trace(e) });          
            
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, 
LoadLeftLoaded);
        }

        function 
LoadLeftLoaded(evt:Event):void
        {
            var

            big_container.removeChild(container_left2);
            
container_left.addChild(displayObject);
            if(start_flag2 == true)
            {
                container_left.x = 1000;
                container_left.y = 20;
            } else {
                container_left.x = 30;
                container_left.y = 
20;
            }
            var timeline:TimelineLite = new 
TimelineLite({onComplete:SpinLeft});
            timeline.append(new 
TweenLite(container_left, 1, {x:30, y:20}));
        }
        
        function SpinLeft()
        {

            container_left2.y = -482;
            var rand:Number = new Number(randomNumber(rand_low, rand_high));
            var timeline:TimelineLite = new TimelineLite({onComplete: 
CompleteLeft});
            timeline.append(new 
TweenLite(container_left, rand/100, {alpha: 1}));
