Double space at the end of a line gives you a line break.

     * Double space at the end of this list item
     a second line on the same list item
     * A new line

displays as

* Double space at the end of this list item
a second line on the same list item
* A new line

I don't think you can get a blank line in the middle of a list item that 
spans across several lines.

You need to separate a header row. See the 
[Cheatsheet](https://rawgit.com/fletcher/human-markdown-reference/master/index.html) 
(Tables-section)

     | col1  | col2  | col3  |
     |-------|-------|-------|
     | cell1 | cell2 | cell3 |
     | cell4 | cell5 | cell6 |
     | cell7 | cell8 | cell9 |

gives

| col1  | col2  | col3  |
|-------|-------|-------|
| cell1 | cell2 | cell3 |
| cell4 | cell5 | cell6 |
| cell7 | cell8 | cell9 |
