Arnold Schwarzenegger reveals recent heart surgery to make him “more of a machine” like the Terminator

Arnold Schwarzenegger has revealed that he had a pacemaker fitted last week after undergoing previous heart surgeries.Schwarzenegger, 76, explained he now has a “machine part” just like his Terminator character – and said he would have to take a pause from going to the gym.Speaking on his podcast Arnold’s Pump Club, released today (March 25), the actor said: ‘Last Monday, I had surgery to become a little bit more of a machine: I got a pacemaker.“I have to tell you, just saying this to all of you goes against so much of my upbringing in Austria, where nobody — ever — talked about medical issues. Everything related to healthcare was kept to yourself.“But I’ve gotten so many messages and emails from people who were born with a bicuspid aortic valve, like me, telling me that talking about my valve replacement surgeries has given them courage and hope to deal with their own.“So, since I know that going against my secretive instinct and being transparent helps people, what choice do I have?”He also went on to reassure his fans that he was “doing great.”“’I had my surgery on Monday, and by Friday, I was already at a big environmental event with my friend and fellow fitness crusader Jane Fonda…’Nobody would ever have thought I started the week with a surgery.“’I want to thank my whole team at the Cleveland Clinic.

We’re No. 1! Canada claims the most Top 10 liveable cities in the world

most liveable cities in the world, no country can top Canada.Once again, three Canadian cities have claimed Top 10 honours on Economist Intelligence Unit’s (EIU) 2023 Global Liveability Index — more than any other country on the list.Vienna, Austria held onto its top spot in the 2023 ranking and its success is attributed to a “winning combination” of good culture and entertainment, reliable infrastructure, stability and excellent education and health care sectors.However, two Australian cities, Sydney and Melbourne, jumped into the Top 5, bumping Calgary out of its #3 ranking last year. Alberta’s largest city slid down to seventh place this year, tied with Zurich, Switzerland, and is now sandwiched between Vancouver (#5) and Toronto (#9).Calgary’s dip can likely be attributed to what the EIU calls “a return to order” following the COVID-19 pandemic.Last year saw Australian cities take a big tumble in the rankings after a particularly infectious strain of COVID seized the island continent.“They have seen their scores in the health care category improve since last year, when they were still affected by Covid waves that stressed their healthcare systems,” said the research firm.However, Canada was the only country in the world to have three of its cities crack the Top 10.
