css matched by the first location ~* ^.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|css|png|js|ico|html)$

Use th following:

        location ~* \.css$ {
             gzip on;
             expires max;
        }

        location ~* ^.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png)$ {
             valid_referers none blocked foo.com;
             if ($invalid_referer) {
                 return 403;
             }
             expires max;
        }

        location ~* ^.+\.(js|ico|html)$ {
             expires max;
        }


BTW, do you really use such indentions ?
If yes, then I understand Python author.
