Body Matters: Master the push-up, then drop and give yourself 10. If you are unable to complete a full push-up, execute the exercise from your knees and/or place your hands on the edge of a sofa or bench (instead of the floor).

On beyond civil rights. Given the audacity of hope, it’s more than a little noteworthy that Obama and his supporters are suddenly pushing realism. Are they objectively wrong when they say an Obama victory won’t end the struggle for racial equality? Certainly not. But downplaying the symbolism and real-life racial significance of an Obama presidency ignores the fact that it would ultimately challenge the nation’s civil rights establishment, and its policies and rhetoric, which routinely question the fundamental fairness of American society. This suggests that although blacks overwhelmingly support Obama, they do not see him as their racial representative. And in a country in which prominent blacks, elected or not, are routinely expected to speak for all 40 million African Americans (and, more likely, no one else), that is a further challenge to the civil rights model, in which the few speak for the many.
