Both of those are good, thanks, and I agree that "Practical" is even 
better than the "Ownership" page alone.  So, practicing what I preach, 
and seeing that there isn't an actual URL in the message pointing out 
the "Practical" page, I hereby provide the URL:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/MemoryMgmt/Articles/mmPractical.html#/
/apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40004447

I'll even go one step further, and provide a "tiny" URL that won't get 
trashed by mail and archivers:
