Talk about stress management.
Let's say you've finished running the police department of New York City. President Bush now wants you to head the Department of Homeland Security.
Oops, turns out you haven't paid taxes after hiring a nanny; she's an illegal immigrant. So you withdraw from consideration.
But that annoying press is still digging. A district attorney is launching a bribery investigation against you and a business with alleged mob ties.
Fast forward to June 30, 2006. You plead guilty to accepting $165,000 in renovations on your apartment from a construction firm that was doing business with the city.
How do you deal with the stress? Bernard Kerik, the former New York police commissioner, turned to karate.
"There's no greater inspiration in my life than martial art," Kerik said. "It got me on a right track."
