He is an adjunct Professor at  Harvard Law School, Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business, and a lecturer at the Marshall School of Business at University of Southern California .

Early life and education
Voss was born in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa. He earned a Bachelor of Science from Iowa State University and Master of Public Administration from the Harvard Kennedy School.

Career
Voss was a member of the New York City Joint Terrorism Task Force from 1986 to 2000. He was involved in monitoring the New York City landmark bomb plot after spending three years investigating the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, one of 500 agents who were involved in the task. He was the "co-case agent" during the investigation of the 1996 TWA Flight 800 explosion.

In 1992, he received hostage negotiation training at the FBI Academy. He spent 24 years working in the FBI Crisis Negotiation Unit and was the FBI's chief international hostage and kidnapping negotiator from 2003 to 2007.

In 2006, he was the lead negotiator on the Jill Carroll case in Iraq as well as the Steve Centanni case in the Gaza Strip. Voss supervised additional hostage cases in the Philippines, Colombia and Haiti.

After working on more than 150 international hostage cases, he retired from the FBI in 2007 and founded The Black Swan Group. The Black Swan Group serves as a consultancy and trainer for both businesses and individuals on negotiation skills. He became an adjunct professor at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business and a lecturer at the USC Marshall School of Business.

In 2016, Voss co-authored the book Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It, with journalist Tahl Raz.

The Rothemund reaction is a condensation/oxidation process that converts four pyrroles and four aldehydes into a porphyrin. It is based on work by Paul Rothemund, who first reported it in 1936. The method underpin more modern synthesis such as those described by Adler and Longo and by Lindsey. The Rothemund reactions is common in university teaching labs.

Method
The reaction employs an organic acidic medium such as acetic acid or propionic acid as typical reaction solvents.  Alternatively p-toluenesulfonic acid or various Lewis acids can be used with chlorinated solvents. The aldehyde and pyrrole are heated in this medium to afford modest yields of the meso tetrasubstituted porphyrins [RCC4H2N]4H2. The reaction entails both condensation of the aldehydes with the 2,5-positions of the pyrrole but also oxidative dehydrogenation of the porphyrinogen [RCC4H2NH]4.

Reaction history
The Nobel Prize-winning multi-step syntheses of Hemin and Chlorophyll by Hans Fischer. inspired the work of his student Paul Rothemund to develop a simple one pot synthesis of porphyrins. In 1935 Paul Rothemund reported the formation of porphyrin, from a simple reaction of pyrrole with gaseous acetaldehyde or formaldehyde in methanol followed by treatment with various concentrations of hydrochloric acid. One year later Paul Rothemund announced the applicability of his reaction to other aldehydes, by which he was able to explore large number of porphyrins. Here he detailed the synthesis of porphine, the fundamental ring system in all the porphyrins. He performed the Porphin synthesis at a temperature of 90-95 °C and high pressure in sealed pyrex glass tubes, by reacting with pyrrole in methanol, 2 % formaldehyde and pyridine for 30 hours. 

A simplified version of Rothemund porphyrin synthesis was described by Alan D. Adler and Frederick R. Longo in 1966. It utilizes mild organic acids as catalyst and reaction medium and is conducted in open air. Seventy aldehydes gave corresponding meso substituted porphyrins. The reaction time was shortened to 30 minutes and yields improved to 20%. The Alder-Logo reaction protocol was further modified by Lindsey et al. Using Lewis acid catalyst (Boron trifluoride) or strong organic acids (trifluoroacetic acid) in chlorinated solvents, yields improved to 30-40%.

Green chemistry variants have been developed in which the reaction is performed with microwave irradiation using reactants adsorbed on acidic silica gel or at high temperature in the gas phase.

Hugo Marti (1893–1937) was a Swiss Germanist, writer and literary editor.

Life and work 
Hugo Marti grew up in Basel, Liestal and Bern.   Initially he studied law, but in 1914 switched to German studies (literature and linguistics).   His studies were several times interrupted by periods spent in Norway and Romania where he supported himself by working as a home tutor.  He eventually obtained his doctorate from the University of Bern in 1921 with a dissertation on the language used in the Swiss Civil Code.

His first job after this was on the iconic Pestalozzi-Kalender, a diary/agenda published annually for school children.   In 1922 he was appointed to a Literary editorship with Der Bund, a daily national newspaper published in Bern.   Here many of his more satirical contributions appeared under the pseudonym, "Bepp":  Bepp's true identity became known only after the writer's death.   As literary editor he was supportive of younger authors such as Friedrich Glauser and Kurt Guggenheim, and acted as a counter-weight to the famously conservative "Literature Pope", Otto von Greyerz

Marti died at Davos, then well known as a health resort, in his 44th year from tuberculosis, with which he had been diagnosed in 1928.   He had written about his treatment for the disease in his "Davoser Stundenbuch".

Alexanders is a two-story, Second Renaissance Revival style commercial building designed by architects Tourtellotte & Hummel and constructed in Boise, Idaho, in 1924. The brick building is clad in white terracotta.

Alexanders was a men's clothing store chain begun in 1891 by Moses Alexander. After construction, the building at 826 Main Street contained Alexanders' flagship store, although Alexanders had operated a store prior to 1924 at the same corner.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
