Cuizer2 Posted February 12, 2012 #978 Share Posted February 12, 2012 [quote name='Keel Haul']I think a better question would be unless the rules have change why were the officers communicating in Italian.[/quote] Because they are all Italian on an Italian ship in Italian waters going from one Italian port to another Italian port while making an unplanned stop at another Italian port.

Its the language of "money". With all German ancestry, my Grandma was desperately trying to teach me German when I was a toddler, but the War was going on and my parents were both building bombers for Douglas Aircraft so my Dad popooed the idea.

Ozcruiser1 Posted February 12, 2012 #983 Share Posted February 12, 2012 This youtube version of the "2nd Video" showing the approx 8 mins on the bridge and "footsteps" along corridor [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doN909fxZRI[/url] has been pulled from you tube.

Ozcruiser1 Posted February 12, 2012 #985 Share Posted February 12, 2012 [quote name='Davyjonesrugrat']The film itself would give a very vague idea of a 'time frame' due to the direction the ship is listing, if the bows are to the right and the camera is pointing to the port side then this would indicate that the film was taken shortly after the incident and before the ship turned back towards Giglio, it might be possible to gauge from the film when the ship turned back and thus it started listing on the starboard side. Rgds :):):)[/QUOTE] I need some help here. from the so named 2nd video I have made a screen capture at 1:23 of what I think shows the lights of Giglio and some railing from in front of the bridge. If we assume that the lights around the port would be more or less horizontal we can work out the list of the ship by measuring the angle from the ships railing to a line of best fit through the lights of the harbour. I make that to be about 20 degrees listing to starboard. at about 6 minutes before general alarm is sounded at about 7:03. Am I missing something. I added the screen capture below.

Hebersgyll Posted February 12, 2012 #987 Share Posted February 12, 2012 .......... just look at Domenica. Ship's entertainer, captain's companion (and comforter?), linguist, translator, announcer, film director(?), journalistic source (maybe scribe, too?), cartoonist, impressionist, traveller. & all while being a mum as well!.... must be worth her weight in gold. She'll collect a bit of that too before all this is over. Will she be sellng tickets for the trials? Oh, I forgot another role,... witness. Maybe that disbars her from selling tickets, but they sure will be 'hot'. Maybe they should book it for the Colosseum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From various interviews I have read so many things she has supposedly said. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/quote] Well, maybe we should figure out how many interviews she has given. There was the long television interview, which has been broken up into at least two different sections that I have seen personally. There is the Oggi interview. There was the televised "french"? interview which one of our Italian members started to watch. Is that the same as the Oggi interview? I think there may have been another after her first interview addressing more accusations, but as there was no source cited, I can't be sure. I don't know about the french interview, but in the other three, there has been no inconsistencies. Has she given another? Or is everything else "leaked" information allegedly from her deposition?

Ozcruiser1 Posted February 12, 2012 #997 Share Posted February 12, 2012 There would appear to be two versions of the footage of the footsteps. The shorter version which was added to the footage taken from the bridge, and the longer "stand alone" version released later. The sound sync is different in both. I think there is a fair bit of manipulation of recordings being released. Who is recording this footage and who is releasing it to the media? Do we know if the courts have access to this from the original source or will they rely on the media released footage? You can be my eyes and ears Milaandra.

[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ag-IdQXOIfI&feature=bf_prev&list=UUtZgcEsPzPv6Ynsrxqwlx4w&lf=plcp[/url] The "shoes" would appear to be flat slip-on sports sandals. This could match the audio of the footsteps which could indicate her being the video recorder, BUT doesnt fit with the mumbled expletive of the male voice at the stairs. Still no closer to finding the recorder of the bridge footage.
