Arnold Schwarzenegger

Schwarzenegger has said he believes the secret a good marriage is love and respect. "If you have the ultimate love for your wife and she has it for you, I think you have a great head start ... That's not to say it won't be difficult sometimes. You go through your ups and downs but you work through it." Schwarzenegger has talked about parenthood in 2000: "One the best things you can do with your children is play with them. At the same time, I act very silly. Many times I do a lot sports with them. I play games with them. Act out parts. We do little plays, sometimes."
His ficial height 6'2" has been brought into question by several articles. In his bodybuilding days in the late 1960s, he was measured to be 6'1.5", a height confirmed by his fellow bodybuilders. However, in 1988 both the Daily Mail and Time Out magazine mentioned that Schwarzenegger appeared noticeably shorter. More recently, before running for Governor, Schwarzenegger's height was once again questioned in an article by the Chicago Reader. As Governor, Schwarzenegger engaged in a light-hearted exchange with Assemblyman Herb Wesson over their heights. At one point Wesson made an unsuccessful attempt to, in his own words, "settle this once and for all and find out how tall he is". by using a tailor's tape measure on the Governor. Schwarzenegger retaliated by placing a pillow stitched with the words "Need a lift?" on the five-foot-five inch (165 cm) Wesson's chair before a negotiating session in his fice. Bob Mulholland also claimed Arnold was 5'10" and that he wore risers in his boots. The debate on Schwarzenegger's height has spawned a website solely dedicated to the issue, and his page remains one the most active on CelebHeights.com, a website which discusses the heights celebrities.
In 2005, Peter Pilz, from the Austrian Green Party, demanded that parliament revoke Schwarzenegger's Austrian citizenship. This demand was based on Article 33 the Austrian Citizenship Act that states: A citizen, who is in the public service a foreign country, shall be deprived his citizenship, if he heavily damages the reputation or the interests the Austrian Republic. Pilz claimed that Schwarzenegger's actions in support the death penalty (prohibited in Austria under Protocol 13 the European Convention on Human Rights) had indeed done damage to Austria's reputation. Schwarzenegger explained his actions by referring to the fact that his only duty as Governor California was to prevent an error in the judicial system.
Schwarzenegger's home town Graz had its soccer stadium named The Arnold Schwarzenegger Stadium in his honor. It is the home both Grazer AK and Sturm Graz. Following the Stanley Williams execution and after street protests in his hometown, several local politicians began a campaign to remove Schwarzenegger's name from the stadium. Schwarzenegger responded, saying that "to spare the responsible politicians the city Graz further concern, I withdraw from them as this day the right to use my name in association with the Liebenau Stadium", and set a tight deadline just a couple days to remove his name. Graz ficials removed Schwarzenegger's name from the stadium in December 2005. It is now ficially titled UPC-Arena.
