**Markdown Conversion:** Markdown is a markup language that uses a standard syntax for representing text. It allows for the use of symbols like `<`, `>` and `$$` for math, brackets for parentheses, and special characters for punctuation. To convert Markdown to readable text, you can use a tool like **Mkpdf** or **Mkmarkdown**. These tools allow you to convert Markdown files to various formats such as HTML, PDF, or plain text.
**HTML Conversion:** HTML (HyperText Language) is a markup language used for creating web pages. It uses standard HTML tags to structure content, including headings, paragraphs, and lists. To convert HTML to readable text, you can use a tool like **Jasper** or **JasperPro**. These tools allow you to convert HTML files to various formats such as PDF, EPS, or other formats that support reading.
**Plain Text Conversion:** Plain text is the most common format for documents. It consists of a single line of text without any special formatting. To convert plain text to readable format, you can use a tool like **Tidy格式** or **Google文档** to clean up any text that may be poorly parsed or formatted.

Fans can still watch games while away from Lawrence

Regardless of where Kansas fans are for winter break, there are places to congregate with other Heathawk fans to watch college basketball games.
Major metropolitan cities like New York and Los Angeles have at least one sports bar that will show Kansas games on television, regardless if they are on national TV stations like ESPN or ABC. Although it's not a guarantee, satellite options at many bars across the country allow them the choice of showing the KU games.
The Adams Alumni Center has free pamphlets that detail cities, names, telephone numbers and addresses of places to watch Kansas basketball away from Lawrence. Included on the sheet are men's and women's basketball schedules and rosters as well as a long listing of places to watch games. Most locations are in major U.S. cities.
Susan Elkins, program director of KU Info, said operators received many calls from out-of-state students and alumni wondering when games were on.
"We get calls from all over the world," she said. "Not many of them deal with basketball, but it happens occasionally."
Ryan Kenny, Denver senior, said that he would be interested in getting together with other Kansas fans to watch games. Denver has at least one location for Jaxbawks fans to assimilate.
"If it's going to give a lively atmosphere, it'd be a good place to be," he said.
Kenny thinks what will draw fans more than anything is a good game.
"If KU's playing a tough opponent or a good opponent, a lot more students would want to watch it," he said.

The Kansas women's basketball team will make history tomorrow.

It's not for the most wins or scoring 1000 points; the Jayhawks are playing the latest exhibition game in Kansas history.

After playing regular season games for almost a month, the Jayhawks will play host to Washburn at 2:05 p.m. tomorrow in Allen Fieldhouse.
See www.kansan.com
Both teams are coming off an exhausting schedule. The 'Hawks recently finished five games in eight days, and the Lady Blues played five games in 10 days.
Washburn (5-1) might be from the MIAA conference, but it has shown it is not a team that can be taken too lightly on the court.
The Lady Blues have an offense that could give the Jayhawks
Even though Washburn and Kansas reside close to each other, they have met only seven times.
trouble. They are outscoring their opponents by 7.6 points per game and are shooting 44.5 percent from the field.
Besides scoring from the field,
they are also adding up points on
the free-throw line. Washburn is
shooting 68.6 percent from the line.
The Lady Blues have four players who average double-figures. Jodi Rausch, senior guard, leads Washburn in scoring, averaging 14 points and five rebounds per game.
Chapman shot the winning basket with four seconds left that gave the Lady Blues a 69-86 win against Angelo State in the Drury Classic in Springfield, Mo.
"We're excited to play Kansas. It's going to be an experience playing in their gym," she said. "Kansas is bigger than us and this experience will help us as we go through the MIAA season."
Kristy Chapman, sophomore guard, averages 24.8 minutes off the bench and is the team's second leading scorer, averaging 12.5 points per game.
Washburn's Jennifer Butcher, senior forward, agreed that this game would help the Lady Blues against teams in their own conference.
"It's a good opportunity for us," he said. "It's a good chance to play one of the top programs in the country. It should be a good experience for us down the road in conference play."

Washburn coach Ron McHenry said that his team was looking forward to this game and that it would be a good game for his players to gain experience.
The last time these two teams met was in the 1974-75 season. Kansas dominates the series 7-0.
Hockey star stages third comeback
The Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — Maybe only Mario Lemieux already the king of comebacks, could pull this off.
Lemieux, who came back from cancer and a one-year layoff from back pain to be hockey's dominant player before retiring at age 31 in 1997, will return to the Pittsburgh Penguins in a one-of-a-kind role: player-owner.
The news of his comeback, which the Penguins will officially announce today, sent shock waves through the Pittsburgh dressing room yesterday. It also is a huge publicity jolt for the NHL, which has struggled since the retirements of Lemieux and Wayne Gretzky to find a marketable superstar.
Lemieux's return to the ice probably won't occur until the end of the month — he needs about three weeks of hard, physical work in practice to get into game shape. But it will be hockey's equivalent to Michael Jordan leaving the owner's box and putting
Lemieux: returns to hockey after battling cancer
on a jersey again.
Super Mario, indeed.
Super Mario Jr. needed.
History will be made the first time the Hall of Famer pulls down his retired No. 66 from Mellon Arena's rafters and wears it again, if only because he will be the first in the modern era to own a major pro sports team and play for it at the same time.
They reached the second round of the playoffs without him the last two seasons, and are 13-10-3 and in second place in the Atlantic Division going into tomorrow's game at Toronto.
Lemieux may have had another reason to return. He has told friends his 6-year-old son, Austin, who already is skating, has asked why he doesn't play anymore.
In 1993, he was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease, cancer of the lymph nodes, and missed much of that season. He sat out the 1994-95 season after recovering from the cancer and a second bout with back trouble, but returned to lead the Penguins to within one victory of a third trip to the Stanley Cup finals in 1996.
Guards: Jayhawk shooting guard KC Hilkenamp is hitting on better than 50 percent of her shots, including 8-of-10 from three-point range. She and the rest of the Kansas guards should have a field day. Advantage: Kansas.

Forwards: Jaclyn Johnson has tallied more than 20 points four times this season, and the Lady Blues are small on the interior. Johnson should have her 20 points in about 15 minutes. Advantage: Kansas.

Coaches: Marian Washington will rally her team from a disappointing loss Saturday and have the 'Hawks playing at their peak. Advantage: Kansas.
Center: Juniors Kristin Geoffrey and Nikki White will tower over the Washburn front court. Provided they are hitting their shots, they should have a big night. Advantage: Kansas.

Intangibles: An exhibition game in the middle of the regular season can't be much fun, but as long as the Jayhawks don't come out flat this one will be finished by halftime. Advantage: Kansas.
The Lady Blues won their second game of the Drury Classic against Angie State on a jumper by Kristy Chapman with four seconds left.
