Newline after “Proof” in proof environment in amsthm package

latex

I'm writing a proof for a long theorem in LaTeX.The content of the proof is a long list of items.
My code is:

    \begin{proof}
     \begin{itemize}
      \item asd
      \item asd
     \end{itemize}
    \end{proof}

And the result looks like this:

proof * asd
   * asd

Is it possible to insert a newline after the "proof" word to get something like:

proof 
   * asd
   * asd

\newline,\\ doesn't work inside the proof environment.
Maybe there is some other way to make it look better?

My latex distribution is texlive 2011

Try ~ before \begin{itemize}.
