HUBERT: DESIGNER
THE BOUTIQUE ABOARD SILVERSEA 11:30 AM
For nearly 25 years Hubert Gesser has traveled the globe in search of nature’s most beautiful treasures. He looks for the best the world has to offer in a spectrum of gemstones from
classic blue sapphire to exotic Paraiba tourmalines. Brazilian born and raised Hubert came to the United States when he was 18-years-old, attending the University of California, where
he earned a Bachelor’s of Science degree in mechanical engineering.
But when Hubert met someone who traveled the world importing gems, he decided without hesitation, to invest his then entire net worth into loose gemstones.
This decision inspired a career change that he would build into a successful gem lapidary house and jewelry manufacturing company known today as Hubert Inc.
Join us in the Boutique to view this unique collection.
TOM SEALS – THE PIANO MAN
TONIGHT’S SHOW AT 10:00 PM AT THE SHOW LOUNGE, DECK 6
The mantle of UK Piano Man has been dominated by Elton John, Jools Holland, and Jamie Cullum. Over the past five decades, no one else has come remotely close – until now that is!
Fresh from his sell-out “Let The Good Times Roll” Tour – Tom Seals, “quite possibly the future of jazz and blues”, has the world at his fingertips. His virtuoso solo-ing, excellent improvisations skills, and distinctive voice have left top industry officials hailing him as the UK’s finest boogie-woogie and blues pianist/vocalist.
Still, only in his mid-twenties, Seals is surely destined for greatness. Hot on the heels of sold-out shows across the globe including London’s legendary Ronnie Scott’s, a stunning performance at Birdland Jazz Club on Broadway in New York, and working with Jools Holland, Tom Seals’ star is destined to soar stratospherically in 2021 with the release of his debut album, own TV show and festival appearances worldwide.
Tom is now filming a ‘live’ version of the show. Recent guests include Slade’s Noddy Holder,
Whispering Bob Harris and comic Jo Brand. The UK’s newest piano man is here.

MEET ENRICHMENT LECTURER DR. MARK ELOVITZ
Back in 2012, Singapore’s Prestige Lifestyle Magazine featured Dr. Elovitz as a “Seminal Visionary.” International audiences acclaim him as a captivating commentator on world affairs. But, Dr. E. – as worldwide aficionados happily refer to him – simply says he is a geopolitician blessed with strategic hindsight.
Prior to lecturing around the globe, Dr. Elovitz served as a litigator, a professor of law, a U.S. government advisor, and a U.S. Air Force Officer.
As a Phi Beta Kappa scholar, he has earned four (4) post-graduate degrees.
Dr. Elovitz has published hundreds of articles. His wide-ranging subjects have addressed legal liability, American public policy, world affairs & international geopolitics. Some of Dr. E’s many colorful commentaries include: “Whose Lunch Is The Dragon Eating?”, “The Machiavellian Mideast”, “Bear Claws & Dragon Breath”, “Political Wimps, Wusses & Wieners” and “When Is Later Too Late?”.
In addition, Dr. Elovitz had previously authored a regular newspaper column focusing on enhanced healthcare delivery. He has also been the lively and often provocative anchor/commentator for a World Affairs T.V. show.
Dr. Elovitz has lived in both Europe and the Mideast. As a United States Air Force Officer, he was a liaison to the American military stationed throughout England, Europe, and North Africa. In that role, he received the U.S.A.F. Commendation Medal for “Exemplary Pedagogic Skill.”
Additionally, Dr. Elovitz served in Washington during the Carter and Reagan Administrations as a government advisor on public policy. Dr. Elovitz has testified before the U.S. Congress’ Committee on Foreign Affairs. He has also been a participant in the U.S. Naval War College’s Current Strategy Forum. Currently, Dr. Elovitz is Director of the Centre For Strategic Geopolitics, a world affairs think tank.
Dr. Elovitz is recognized for his penetrating insights into and astute assessments of world affairs. His distinctive careers, extensive worldwide travels, and diverse international contacts produce presentations with uncommon depth and unique understandings of world affairs. He deftly provides the unjaded content and context that are often sadly absent from the print and broadcast media. As a result, Dr. E’s dynamic presentations are colorful, illuminating, and decidedly thought-provoking.

MEET ENRICHMENT LECTURER PROF. GEORGE LOSEY
George S. Losey, Jr., Professor Emeritus, Department of Zoology and Hawai’i Institute of Marine Biology, University of Hawai’i.
Professor George Losey was entranced by the ocean growing up with diving mask and plywood body-surfing board on the S.E. Florida coast. When first introduced to the fledgling sport of SCUBA diving at age 14 in 1954, he was literally “hooked.” Exploring and spear fishing throughout Florida and the Bahamas convinced him that this had to be his future. He received his Ph.D. in 1968 from Scripps Institution of Oceanography working on reef fishes of the E. Pacific. His studies introduced him to Ethology, a largely European discipline relatively new to the USA that concentrates on study of the natural behavior of animals and their social interactions. He left La Jolla in 1968 for the warmer waters of the University of Hawai’i and remained as a Professor and Researcher in the Department of Zoology and the Hawai’i Institute of Marine Biology. His research projects, mostly funded by the National Science Foundation, concentrated on cleaning symbiosis in fish and sea turtles, aggressive and territorial behavior of reef fishes, sex change in reef fishes, learning and instinctive behavior in freshwater and marine fishes and, most recently, ultraviolet vision and coloration in reef fishes and how these fishes cope with UV radiation. He lived underwater as an Aquanaught in Puerto Rico, dove in purse seines of the E. Pacific fishing fleet with dolphins and tunas and has visited marine labs from Israel to Australia.
Dr. Losey first started cruise ship speaking in 1996 on the QE 2 and was, once again, hooked. He decided that this was a far more civilized way to enjoy the ocean than sailing in rough Hawaiian waters in his 30 ft. sloop. Since then he has given talks on various ships with topics in oceanography and climate change, coral reefs, marine biology, Hawaiian natural history, Hawaiian legends and “nature vs. nurture” of human and animal behavior. He often combines research with lecture cruises: In the Caribbean, he converted part of his stateroom into a traveling laboratory to study aspects of ultraviolet vision in fishes purchased in each port. If you are curious, stop George to further pursue the topics of his talks and find out just what he is up to on this cruise. He is always happy to sit and enjoy a “tall cool one” in relaxing conversation.
MEET OUR NEW CAPTAIN – MICHELE MACARONE PALMIERI
Michele was born in Sorrento, South Italy. He completed his nautical studies in the ‘Istituto Nautico Nino Bixio’ in Piano Di Sorrento 1976. In the same year he joined the Italian cargo line ‘Lloyd Triestino’ as a cadet for a period of 18 months.
He then went on to become an Officer on many different cargo ships, including gas tankers, chemical and bulk carriers. In 1987, with the Ocean Quest cruise line he had the opportunity to join a passenger ship for the first time with the rank of Second Officer until 1989. Roughly two year later he moved to the Renaissance Cruise Line where he covered the position of Chief Officer until 1994.
Silversea Cruises offered him the position of First Officer on the Silver Wind. He was on board during the building and construction of the ship and for the maiden voyage. For his second contract, on the Silver Cloud, he was promoted to Chief Officer Navigator and since 1998 in the position of Staff Captain, or Second in Command. Captain Macarone Palmieri was appointed Master of the Silver Cloud for the first time in the early 2002. During the last few years he has been in Command of all Silversea’ s ships.
In his recent appointment as Master of the Silver Whisper, Captain Macarone Palmieri is responsible first and foremost for the safety of the vessel and all guests and crew on board, as well as the navigation and the actual maneuvering in and out of port. He conducts weekly meetings with all department heads to ensure the smooth operation of the ship. Presently living in South Africa, during his vacation, he enjoys to spend quality time in Italy and South Africa with his sons, daughters and dogs.
