I believe air pressure is measured in PSI ( pound per square inch)
by using a barometer

The unit of measurement is pounds per square inch, or psi
Stolen from Wikipedia:
The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure and is defined as being equal to 101.325 kPa. The following units are equivalent, but only to the number of decimal places displayed: 760 mmHg (torr), 29.92 inHg, 14.696 psi, 1013.25 millibars/hectopascal.
If you have a barometer at home or watch any weather related news, atmospheric pressure is most commonly given in: inHg (inches of Mercury[at least here in the USA]).

What are meteorological instruments?

What are the two factors that determine the movement of air mass?
Two main factors that influence air movement are pressure and temperature, though they are really the same thing. Air moves to places with less pressure, to "fill them up," and gets pushed away from areas with high pressure. Also, when air gets hot, it becomes less dense than the air around it and is pushed upward. When it gets cold, it becomes more dense, and sinks toward the ground.
What is that thing doctors use to check blood pressure?

How do you measure shrums?
The bad thing about shrooms is, it is really hard if not immposible to measure potency. You never really know how strong the smallest or most gigantic shroom will be. The good thing is, u can't overdose on them, you might just have a REALLY long and bad trip if you take too much. I would start off with about 5-8 average size shrooms. You will definatly have a nice trip. It just takes practice and experience ...
