million accessible documents and programs. Anyone
who is interested in knowledge has to marvel at the
incredible information available on The Internet.

DETECTIVE DATABASES
A Special Report
by Steven Woas
Haven't you ever wondered where private detectives get
there information? These days, smart detectives get most
of their information from special databases called
superbureaus. Some of the information you can uncover
about a person or corporation is astonishing!
I had an offer from a book distributor. They wanted me
to supply a sizeable amount of my product on credit.
Before I sent books, I decided I had better check them
out. So I did some serious research on detective
databases. Am I glad I did! It turned out they had
numerous law suits against them. It saved me a lot of
money. When I contacted one of these databases by phone,
they did not ask me for my address. They only needed my
telephone number and name. They informed me of my
address--and in a few more minutes they knew more about
me than my best friend does.
This special report will give you the information to
protect yourself. Find out about another person
or company. Many of these services don't even require
you to have a computer to get the information. A phone
and a fax will do just fine.
Detective database services being offered:
Pre-Employment Screening
Credit Reports
Criminal Records
Driving Records
Vehicle Ownership by name (find out what vehicles a
person owns)
Vehicle Ownership by plate number (find out who owns
the vehicle and where the person lives)
Pilot License verification
Educational Background checks
Degree Verification
Judgments
Social Security number tracing
Name tracing
Movers Index (find out where a person has moved)
Telephone number charges
Name/address/phone numbers of up to nine nearby neighbors
Death Records
Marriage Records
Real Property Records Nationwide
Licensed Occupation Reports
(for example--Does a Doctor have the license he
claims)
Asset searches (find out what the person owns --
property, property in other states, cars, etc.)
Skip-Traces (find people who don't want to be found)
People Identifier (give name and address--get Social
Security number, spouse, last address/employer)
and MUCH, MUCH, MORE.
The databases in this special report are the sources that
detectives use. It also includes a Suggested Reading
List. The report contains the needed information,
addresses, and phone numbers. Some of these services
will let you have a free online demonstration. To order
this special report send $15.00 plus $2.00 shipping
(U.S. funds) for US and Canada. FORIEGN orders add $5.00
shipping for surface mail. FORIEGN orders add $10.00
shipping for airmail.

NAVIGATION PAC PLUS
by Steven Woas
This is a software program for doing celestial
navigation. It works on all IBM compatible computers.
Celestial Navigaion is a dying art. But lorans and GPSs
often die, too. The prudent sailor takes a sextant along
and learns how to use it. Celestial Navigation is also
fun. Here is a software program that has built in
almanac data for the sun and 57 stars until the year
2000. It contains the following programs:
1. Sun & Star Reduction (with almanac).
2. Sight Reduction (all bodies)
3. Two body fix
4. Dead Reckoning
5. Great Circle Sailing
6. Rhumb-Line Sailing
7. Location of 57 Stars
8. Star Identification
Navigation Pac Plus comes with an 18 page manual which
has sample problems. This package is not designed to
teach celestial navigation. You need to be familiar with
the navigation jargon. It is for actually doing
navigation at sea. However, it can be of considerable
help when learning navigation and star identification if
used in conjunction with other classes and/or books.
The cost of Navigation Pac Plus is $29.95 (postpaid) in US and
Canada. FOREIGN orders add $5.00 shipping for surface mail.
FOREIGN orders add $10.00 shipping for airmail.
Please specify disk size (5 1/4 inch or 3 1/2 inch) when
ordering.
