Problem: Article: A hambone "gallop" is a simple three note combination: hand, knee, knee. For the first beat of this gallop pattern, clap both of your hands together. Clap your hands so that one hand rests on top of the other. This works best if you are sitting with your knees or thighs extended directly below your hands. Slide your top hand off the bottom hand and strike the top part of the thigh lying directly below it. The beat or rhythm of this slap should be the same in duration as your first slap. Keep your hand open so that the inside of your palm and fingers strike your thigh. Flip your other hand over and strike the top part of the corresponding thigh with the inside of your palm and fingers. The beat or rhythm of this slap should be the same in duration as your first and second slaps. Repeat these three slaps in successive order to create the gallop effect. The more rapidly you perform the effect, the more impressive it sounds and the closer it comes to an actual gallop. You can experiment with the speed until you find one that sounds pleasing to you, though.
Summary: Clap your hands once. Hit one knee with one hand. Hit the other knee with your other hand. Speed up and slow down.

Problem: Article: A really dedicated poseur can easily purchase fans, views and followers. This will artificially inflate their social media accounts, making it seem like they have a large following. To get to the bottom of this, look at the relationship between your suspected poseur and their fans. You can also check the profiles of their followers; if the profiles are empty, they're not real followers. Social media is essentially a more complicated, high tech conversation. If there are no comments or likes on the suspected poseur's posts, it's a one way conversation and you might be dealing with a poseur. Buying a following means poseurs don't have to worry about putting out quality posts. Even without a following, poseurs will focus on posts that can bring the most attention, rather than putting out something important and creative. People who are passionate about their hobby or interest will release content that helps to educate others or celebrates their passion. Poseurs treat it like a science; they're just after the views. The scheduling of a person's posts can tell you a lot about how they treat their social media accounts. A poseur might try and use their social media accounts like a brand or company: minimizing effort and maximizing their following. Someone who's passionate is more likely to post as the mood strikes them; maybe they come across something particularly funny or important they really want to share. If the suspected poseur runs their social media on a tight schedule, your suspicions likely have some truth to them.
Summary: Check up on their followers. Look for quality posts. Pay attention to how often they post.

Problem: Article: Visit the appropriate court (county, state, appellate, supreme, etc.) and ask an employee to show you to the court record archives. The archives might be organized by year, by case type, or by both. Ask the person who directs you to the archives how to find the record you need. You can view the record for free, but will need to pay a fee if you want to make copies. Depending on how much space they have, the court may have moved older records to a different location. If so, ask whether you should visit that location or submit a request for the clerk to have the file sent back to the court archives. If you don't want to search the archives yourself, you can fill out paperwork to have the clerk's office do the work for you. The process may vary from court to court, so read through the instructions carefully. While some courts will ask you to send your request through the mail, others might ask you to visit the clerk in person. The court's website might say that you must mail your records request to them. Copy the address carefully to ensure your request reaches the right office. Include a self-addressed, stamped envelope so they can mail the record back to you. Make sure it's big enough to hold the entire document! The website might ask you to download and print off a request form, or just to write a letter asking for a criminal record. Look first for a form, but if you're writing a letter, include the following information: The defendant's full, legal name His or her date of birth The specific documents you would like to see. For example: A trial docket (all the materials filed during a trial) The minutes for a specific court date The sentencing document If the court doesn't allow mailed requests, visit the clerk's office in person. You can either fill out the request form there or deliver your request letter. Bring as much information as possible with you, so you don't have to come back for a second trip with more information. The benefit of submitting your request in person is that you can ask questions to the person helping you out. Don't be shy! If you have any questions, ask them before you leave the office. Some courts are now allowing access to digital records, but these records are not free. You will most likely have to pay for downloads. The clerk's office will likely charge you for every page they have to copy for you. Estimate how many pages the record will be, and include that amount with the request. If you are mailing your request, search the website for a "fee schedule" that tells you how much it costs to print each page. If you are submitting your request in person, ask the person at the desk to help you figure out how much you owe. Some offices only ask you to cover the costs up to a certain amount. They might ask you to write "Not to exceed $10" or "Not to exceed $35" on the check you write. If you provided a self-addressed, stamped envelope, the clerk's office will send you the records in the mail. If not, they will call you to let you know when you can pick the records up in person.
Summary:
Search the court archives yourself. Search the court's website for information on requesting criminal records. Mail your request. Deliver your request in person. Pay the fee. Wait to receive your records.
