You can simply autorelease that object to make runtime responsible for releasing it.
Not shure cause I haven't started Objective-C not to long ago but I would to autoreleas directly when you alloc it. That will prevent you from having to manage the release and making the runtime manage the release of it.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
