The simplest and most ARC friendly way to implement the singleton pattern is to 
switch from instance methods to class methods – because the class itself is by 
definition a singleton. In other words:

        + (MyClass *)sharedInstance;
        // and maybe override alloc/retain/release to enforce the singleton 
pattern
        - (int)foo;
        - (void)setFoo:(int)val;

…becomes simply:

        + (int)foo;
        + (void)setFoo:(int)val;
