	CNN.com - Beijing orders golden arches removed - March 1, 2002
		Beijing officials said the towering arches are not in harmony with the surroundings and are blotting the capital's architectural landscape.
		The first arch to bite the dust was a 10-meter high sign close to the Kempinski Hotel in northern Beijing, the South China Morning Post reported.
		But the sudden decision to do away with the golden arches could hurt the fast food giant, as advertising and marketing are integral to its success.

	Golden Arches - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Golden Arches are the famous symbol of McDonald's, a fast-food hamburger chain based in Oak Brook, Illinois, USA.
		While McDonald's dropped the physical arches from its restaurants in the 1960s, the Golden Arches have remained in the logo, and as a commonly understood term for the company.
		It should be noted that Friedman framed this theory in terms of McDonald's Golden Arches "with tongue slightly in cheek" (Friedman 2005).

	Kurt Andersen ~ TIME ~ Legacy of the Golden Arches
		Philip Langdon's Orange Roofs, Golden Arches (Knopf; $30) is an exhaustive social history of chain restaurants.
		Usually, as Langdon says, it was a case of "form faking function." Cosmetic A-frames were slapped onto plain boxes; McDonald's golden arches never supported anything.
		California's Frank Gehry, for instance, practices a scrupulously conceived kind of rawboned Googie architecture: his buildings are striking mixes of forms, structural systems and materials, and sometimes (as in the Aerospace Museum in Los Angeles) they even play with illusions of antigravity.

		Last week, I told you about fast-food chains like McDonald's gobbling up the real estate near public schools in urban areas, arguably a strong contributor to the epidemic of obesity in this country, particularly among children.
		This week, McDonald's is launching a national physical education program for elementary school kids, which many experts -- me included -- believe is no more than a clever advertising scheme tailor-made for the Golden Arches' target audience.
		Some 31,000 elementary schools in the United States, encompassing 7 million students, have agreed to use McDonald's "Passport to Play" program this year, a great way for the fast-food giant to expose their toxic high-fat foods to a captive and impressionable audience.
