\parskip
\parskip is the extra vertical space inserted before a 
paragraph.  It has a natural length of zero but should be a 
rubber  length  so that it may 
be stretched in a 
flushbottom environment.
To increase \parskip to skip a line between paragraphs one
could use
  \addtolength{\parskip}{\baselineskip}
