If a recipe calls for 1 teaspoon of baking soda, youâll want to substitute with 2 to 3 teaspoons of baking powder. Just make sure your baking powder is still effective and not passed its use-by date.
Berlin Wallâs fall marked the end of the Cold War for the American public. By Andrew Kohut 1 comment. People gather near a part of the Berlin Wall that has been broken down after the communist German Democratic Republicâs (GDR) decision to open borders between East and West Berlin, circa November 1989.(Photo by Carol Guzy/The Washington Post/Getty Images).he fall of the Wall only improved the American view of Gorbachev.

Berlin Wall Torn Down. The official opening of the border with West Berlin occurred in a strange, confused way -- not much of a hammer blow at all. On Nov. 9, 1989, an East German official announced that East Germans would be allowed permanent departure or travel abroad.They could get passports or exit visas freely.hat followed was a two-day long party in the streets of Berlin. People began taking hammers and chisels to the wall, tearing it down piece by piece (and saving many pieces for souvenirs -- you can still buy them in German gift shops). Thousands of hammer blows finally destroyed the wall.
