title: Forcing a \list item to align with the top of it's contents in LaTeX
body: <p>I'm working on typing up some homework in LaTeX. Some of the questions have multiple parts. For one of them I have to inserted a table. The problem is the item label gets centered vertically with respect to the table, however, I'd prefer the label to be aligned at the top. To see what I'm talking about you can view the output here: <a href="http://ianburris.com/dropbox/public/so/q2/hw1.pdf" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://ianburris.com/dropbox/public/so/q2/hw1.pdf</a> and look at problem 5 part b. Also, here is the code for that portion:</p>
  
  <pre><code>\item
  \begin{tabular}{ll}
      pushi &amp; 0\\ 
      load &amp; 15\\ 
      pushi &amp; 12\\ 
      alu.sub &amp; \\ 
      pushi &amp; 0\\ 
      store &amp; 5\\ 
  \end{tabular}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How would do I force the label to align with the top of the table?</p>
