When a career criminal decided to dress up as Santa Claus, he wasn't in a giving mood—more like taking. Back in 1927, Marshall Ratliff held up the First National Bank in Cisco, Texas, dressed in the saintly red and white suit that anyone would mistake for the outfit of a benevolent gift-giver in December. He proved his audacity knew no bounds and instigated a statewide manhunt.
After he first stepped inside the First National Bank, Ratliff was met with the cashier's greeting of "Hello, Santa!" Shortly thereafter, his accomplice entered the financial institution and said it was about to be robbed. Ratliff had just been released from jail earlier that month. In Texas in this day and age, approximately four banks per day were being robbed. A $5K bounty was being offered by state authorities to anyone who shot a criminal robbing a bank. Since Ratliff had a familiar face in Cisco, he chose to dress in the most inconspicuous costume of the day… Santa Claus. His cohorts were two criminals he prepared for the heist. He got the costume and set the plan in motion.

Kate Hudson Keeps It Real In This Priceless Pic
Sure, getting dressed up for red carpet events looks amazing and all, but even that has its downsides. Kate Hudson showed how hard it is to go to the bathroom in a fancy dress on Instagram. She looked gorgeous in the floral dress she wore to the La Mer celebration, but doing daily and important tasks in it wasn't so easy. That's just one of those things you don't think about until it's too late, you know? I mean, when have you ever thought about wearing something by asking yourself, "Will I be able to go to the bathroom easily in this?" Never.
Women tend to go to the bathroom in groups, and it's got a lot to do with moments like these. Who else would help you in a time of need like this other than your gal pals? I love that Hudson was able to catch this laughable moment because it's definitely one of those priceless behind-the-scenes kind of snaps. You definitely don't think of this when you picture the glitz and the glam of an event like this.
Leave it to Hudson to always keep it real, though. She's constantly doing that on social media, and you've got to admire how open she is. Because really — it's not just her. We've all had these moments.
Raise your hand if you've been here before.
Here are some other times the struggle has been real, even for her.
1. Hungover Travels
Because who travels without drinking before hand?
2. Upkeep
You've got to keep those roots looking good.
3. Time For A Nap
Because sometimes you just need a break.
4. Cheetos And Wine
Hmm, what to snack on? Cheetos and wine. They make up an essential food group, after all.
5. Workout Mode
When you try to work out, but, like, puppies!
6. Dance Party
This is pretty much the only way to cure boredom.
Hudson just gets it.

Freddy Farouk puts in an appearance.
Having had the briefest of encounters with Egyptian Royalty towards the end of my novel 'The Merry Millionaire,' by sheer coincidence, on Saturday 27th February, 1937, my principle characters, Ron and Mervyn, in the sequel, namely, 'Pomp and Circumstance,' happen to share their return voyage from Egypt on the 'Viceroy of India' with young King Farouk. He is travelling to Europe to begin a Royal Tour and my pair of intrepid adventurers bump into Farouk in a most interesting and amusing way, which begins a friendship between the trio which is destined to continue way into the story. We learn much about the young king's life inside and outside the restrictions of the Abdin Palace in Cairo, as well as a side of his personality as yet hidden from the public eye. I found this extract from Al-Ahram, the Egyptian newspaper accredited to Yunan Labib Rizk, which allows us an insight into the tight schedule young Freddy Farouk, his mother, Queen Nazli and his four sisters underwent during the winter of 1937. When King Fuad I died on 27 April 1936, his son and successor Prince Faruq had just turned 16 (he was born on 11 February 1920). Both Wafd Party leaders and British authorities in Cairo felt it in their interests to shorten the period until he turned 18, the constitutionally stipulated minimum age for a king. Their means towards this end was to reckon his age on the basis of the lunar, instead of the solar calendar, thereby reducing the interval from about 22 months to precisely 15 months and 14 days. Although this may have struck the Egyptians as odd at the time, in fact the precedent had been set much earlier. Until the era of the Khedive Ismail (1863-1879) the viceregal throne fell to the eldest living descendant of Muhammad Ali. Ismail, however, succeeded in securing an Ottoman firman restricting succession to the eldest son of the occupant of the throne. Therefore, when he was deposed, his son Tawfiq assumed the throne. Yet, when the Khedive Tawfiq died at an early age his son, Abbas Helmi was just short of 18. The British Consul-General Lord Cromer, the effective ruler of the country at the time, discovered a way around the problem. He consulted with Al-Azhar officials who readily agreed to calculate Abbas' age on the basis of the lunar calendar, thereby enabling his immediate succession.
Until this point, the succession to the Egyptian throne had to be authorised by a firman issued by the Ottoman sultan. Upon the outbreak of World War I the British not only deposed Abbas Helmi II, but also ignored Ottoman rights of suzerainty and appointed his successor themselves. He was the eldest living prince of the Muhammad Ali dynasty, Abbas Helmi's uncle Hussein Kamel, to whom the British, moreover, accorded the title "sultan." Hussein Kamel did not live much longer, and when he died his son Prince Kemaleddin refused to assume the throne. The British therefore offered it to his brother Ahmed Fuad who was only too glad to accept. In 1917, Fuad became Egypt's second sultan and then when Egypt was granted nominal independence in 1922 he was crowned king. During that year, too, the sultan turned king drew up a law of succession designating his eldest son, Faruq, as his successor. Faruq was only two years old at the time.
Although King Fuad was destined to live 15 years longer, he took an important precaution, thereby setting another precedent in the history of the Muhammad Ali dynasty. This was to name three persons who would act as regents in the event that he died before his son reached the age of majority. Fuad's foresight proved fortuitous for that eventuality did in fact come to pass. Although there were a couple of hitches regarding the appointment of the regents, there was no question that Faruq was the next king. The question that did remain was what to do with the young man until he reached the age at which he could assume his constitutional powers. After considerable deliberation and consultations all concerned, settled upon the idea that the young king spend at least some of the approximately 16 months left until he reached 18 in Europe and in Britain in particular. After all, he had interrupted his education in order to return to Egypt upon the sudden death of his father and it was only fitting that he return in order to resume the studies that would provide him with at least the minimum know-how to rule his country.
Foremost among the "all concerned" was British ambassador to Egypt Sir Miles Lampson whose opinion it was that the longer the "boy," as he referred to the king in his communications with London, stayed in England the more sympathetic he would be to British policy towards Egypt. Lampson also felt that Faruq would stand a better chance of imbibing British culture if he were steeped in a British environment. Certainly all efforts of Mr Edward Ford, the Eton schoolmaster that had been brought over to Egypt to instruct the young king, failed to accomplish this end. Faruq had been woefully negligent of his studies.
The Wafd Party government was another concerned party. At the time the idea of a royal educational excursion came up, the government was busy taking the first steps to implement the provisions of the 1936 Anglo-Egyptian Treaty, which entailed among other things, laying the groundwork for negotiations to end the capitulations system. The last thing it wanted was for palace officials to take advantage of the sympathy and popularity the young king enjoyed in the wake of his father's death with the intent of undermining the Wafdist government's work. It, therefore, heartily welcomed Faruq's temporary removal to Europe. A third concerned party was, of course, the regency council, headed by Prince Muhammad Ali, the younger brother of Abbas Helmi II. Although the regency council initially voiced concern over the wisdom of sending their young charge abroad, its resistance did not last long. After all, the council could wield its powers on behalf of the king more extensively if he wasn't physically present to observe it. It was thus one of those rare moments of concord between the Wafd, Abdin Palace and the British that dispatched the still juvenile monarch on a European tour that would encompass Switzerland, France and Britain. The British ship bearing the royal personage set sail from Port Said on 27th February 1937. On board were 30 members of the royal court to keep him company and supervise him. They included the queen mother, several princesses and the king's mentor Ahmed Hassanein. The ship returned to Alexandria on 24 July 1937.
As the voyage commenced, so too did that business that Egyptians have excelled in throughout their long history: the making of despotic monarchs. Although the academic works on the life and character of Faruq agree that he derived very little educational benefit from the trip, what was written about him in the press at the time was bound to turn the head of that 16-year-old youth. Indeed, the propaganda had built around him such an aura of magnificence that we can safely say that by the time he returned to Egypt he had been moulded into yet another of that long procession of god-like rulers that Egyptians have known throughout their history.
On 21 February 1937 Al-Ahram 's correspondent in Port Said sped off the following report:
"In response to the plea of the inhabitants of the popular quarter in this city, His Majesty the King, may God grant him a long life, has graciously condescended to honour this quarter and pass with his fortunate retinue through Saad Zaghlul and Princess Eugenie Streets. The entire city is in a frenzy of activity as it decks itself out. Especially splendid are the decorations with which the Islamic Philanthropic Society has ornamented the facades of its two schools, the displays that have been erected in front of the Labour Federation Centre and the decorations which adorn the path along which the royal procession will proceed."
Meanwhile, the royal train set off from Qubba Palace at 2.45pm on Saturday 27 February. As an added security measure, a military train had departed in advance to ascertain the safety of the route. Before departing, the king delivered a brief statement in which he said that he planned to visit various European countries for the benefit of his education which had been interrupted by the death of his father. All along the way from Cairo to Port Said, villages vied with one another to pay tribute and demonstrate their loyalty to their new king. In Minia Al-Qamh, the Abaza family had solicited palace authorities to permit the royal train to stop briefly in their village so that the king could partake in refreshments offered in a large, magnificently ornamented tent they had erected in the train station. The municipality, railway authority and other government agencies in Zaqaziq festooned their city with a variety of decorative displays.
"Of particular note are those that were created by the eminent Abdel-Rahman Radwan Bek on his cotton ginnery, his school and his other properties facing the train station.
The newspaper correspondent gave particular mention to the decorations that adorned the home of Member of Parliament Ali Lahita. Lahita had also decked out a large launch, which was to escort the ship bearing His Majesty as it set out to sea.
"The launch will have on board the famous Fanagili troupe whose ensemble of folk drums and wind instruments will provide delightful musical entertainment. The Lahita family has also decorated their other boats which are docked in the port as a declaration of their dedication and loyalty to our king."
It is not difficult to imagine the splendid send-off accorded to the SS Viceroy of India as it wended its way out to the open sea, on 27th February 1937 with its precious royal cargo, not to mention representatives of the Egyptian press, including, of course, the correspondent of Al-Ahram who covered the progress of the royal European tour.
AL-AHRAM, like the rest of the Egyptian press, stressed the importance of this event.
"Faruq has only five months until he attains legal age," it wrote. "He felt it important that he take advantage of this period to acquire cultural edification from an environment in which order prevails absolutely and in which the conditions of material progress and social advancement have attained the clearest and most elevated manifestations."
The newspaper adds that the king had taken this decision less than a year after having ascended the to the throne, during which period he had "studied the life of his people, visited their urban and rural dwellings and familiarised himself with their sources of strength and weakness and their demands and aspirations."
On board the Viceroy of India, the Al-Ahram correspondent kept Egyptians up to date on the minutest details of the king's movements. Typical of the reports he transmitted home via the wireless is the following:
"His Majesty the King emerged from his cabin suite at 7.00am and proceeded up to the deck where he partook of some brief exercise. His Majesty appears in the finest health after having a comfortable night's sleep."
After 72 hours, the British liner arrived in Marseille. In celebration of the arrival, the ship's orchestra struck up the Egyptian and British national anthems, after which there was a hearty round of applause for the king,
"whose sporting simplicity and smiling countenance delighted the passengers."
On the wharf, the Egyptian consul-general to France was waiting to receive the king. Along with him were other members of the consulate and about 100 Egyptian students who were then attached to various French universities. After one of the students delivered a welcome speech on behalf of his peers, they all broke out in the salute, "Long live the King of Egypt and Sudan." Faruq thanked them for their kind sentiments. The students greeted the brief speech with an enthusiastic round of applause and cheers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SD-asE6MQCc

I've just never really been that much into Zedd, personally. I can see the appeal in his tracks, his singles are phenomenal, and his status in electronic music is well deserved. I especially like one of his singles "Stay The Night" and I absolutely love belting out the lyrics along with Hayley Williams.
As good as the original is, though, Chet Porter's cover is absolutely incredible. It's one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. From the harp in the beginning to the chirping birds, the crescendoing synth and the soft Legend of Zelda samples (the kid yawning), the sound design and mixing is phenomenal. Every time I start it over, I get chills when the lightly phased vocals come in. The quivering bassline beneath the lead synth is something out of a dream, toying with you and teasing your eardrums. The future trap stylings are apparent, as the 808s roll in but they're so subtly pronounced that the rest of the track is unaffected, and they serve as a light garnish atop the delicious main course.
Every little effect, every little synth and bassline and sample in this track is like a masterfully made entrée made to co-mingle and bring out the best of every individual ingredient. This song can be completely different whether played loudly or quietly, with the booming bass beneath your feet or the faint hints of chimes and piano.
This is, in my opinion, a perfectly crafted track.

hey im 14yrs old and I have been doing quite a lot of research into some things I am experiencing and im just not sure if im getting anywhere and would like others opinion also I am sorry this is so long. so cutting down to the point, It was only recently that I moved into my new house (we lived in our old one for 7 years) and I started to hallucinate things (we have been in this house for about six weeks) now it wasn't the first time I have had hallucinations but I thought I should look into it. ive been having hallucinations every since I was young (like 4+) when I was really young I remember when I used to visit my dad (saw him during the school holidays) sometimes I would see something in a tree at the front I used to play in it was a boy a dead one really pale but the odd thing about him was he sometimes would have like tentacles instead of a body (so a head and tentacles or sometimes he had a full body) and I always got really scared and ran inside those rarely happened but I remember in year one (we had moved from my old place and somewhere new and I didn't have any friends) I would sit in this corner and cry but one day I saw a girl once again she was a dead girl she was old fashioned night gown that had blood on it not heaps just a bit and was soaking wet I dont know why but I wasn't ever scared I told her to get out of my corner and she said no anyways I became friends with her and im pretty sure she died from drowning she fell from somewhere hit her head (hence the blood) and drowned (why she was wet) and I vaguely remember these dreams that we went on her and I we saved a town or something It was weird I dont remember her name I know it was something with an A I think Annabelle sounds something close to it but I cant remember her name anyways one day she disappeared and I never saw her again and it made me upset but oddly I forgot about her until year 6 when I had one of those dreams again but she was older and it was weird and all my memories came back, I have many times seen dead people on the street they had like this glowing aurora around them that as how I knew they were dead that and no one else saw them (I just knew that couldn't) I have waved to them smiled etc. I also felt the presence of a person like someone opens a door and I just get this random information like John was his name 37 a wife two kids a smoker died in a car accident (made that up but it happened it hasn't happened since year six) I also have seen shadows moving Turing into things and ive seen things I cant really explain them like people sometimes there not and they move around I have heard things like whispers underneath my bed and footsteps scratches music playing etc ive also felt things I remember when I was younger I climbed on my mums perfectly made bed (you would see a if there was something underneath the blankets) and I climbed on it to get something from her bedside table and I felt a leg and heard hissing I ran away and when I came back nothing was there I cant say the exact age but I was around 7-9 years old and I got it really bad everynight for 6months I remember it was horrible I would see things (even in plain daylight) hear things feel things it was scary and I still get these hallucinations there on and off they can last a month, weeks a few days usually if I have a nightmare they come or if I talk about them but they do just randomly happen. I used to think I saw dead people but now im just questioning if I hallucinated it all or if it was real I know its not but im lost at the moment I cant tell if it is or if it isnt. also I go numb a lot I cant feel anything im like an empty shell and I have so many thoughts running around in my head but I just can't get to them its like a wall blocks them and when I do feel something its everything negative and I cry and cry. I think a lot I have so many ideas in my head ones that ive been told are not what a 14 year old my age think about that its deeper and I like to think in all honesty I cant turn it off even if I wanted to. I also have this thing it started with me wanting to become an author but I look at every detail like when I look at a person I look at like the liens on there face the colours in there eyes the movement of there mouth and I have periods where I zone out and Im numb but I cant stop I look at my hand and its weird I know its mine but its different it doesn't feel like it should be and then I cant stop looking at everything in detail I think I just have a really active imagination but I wanted to see others opinions im super concerned about the hallucinations I just want to know what they are. I also wanted to add in that i have ADHD, depression , and high anxiety (and to add it in agoraphobia) also ive always had trouble sleeping at night thank you for reading please reply i need some advice opinons.

The lead in the FT today is that putting intangibles into the US national accounts raises US GDP by 3%. What does the UK picture look like?
1. One change in the US is to incorporate artistic originals, that is, spending on creating movies, books etc. That is already in the UK accounts, but not measured so well. If we adopt new methods, we have an increase in the UK GDP too by about £1.7bn, here (this is updated work using new methods for 2011).
2. Another change is to count R&D spend as an investment. For the UK, if we add private R&D spend, that raises UK GDP by about £15.5bn.
3. So these two together would raise UK market sector output by about 1.7% and GDP by about 1%.
4. Incorporating a fuller range of intangibles (design, training, marketing, business process re-engineering) raises UK market sector value added by about 11% and GDP by about 6%. Latest UK data are here, and international data are at www.intan-invest.net.
5. Our work also suggests that neglecting intangibles can explain part of the UK productivity puzzle.
(Thanks to @johnvanreenen for linking to me on this, after a weekend teaching, I was going to take the day off....)

Gattefossé: A natural emulsifier for silicon-free make-up and sun care products
Gattefossé has showcased at in-cosmetics Global in Paris a new naturally derived water-in-oil emulsifier especially designed for pigmented formulations, such as make-up and sun care products. The innovation was rewarded by the Gold Innovation Award in the category "functional ingredients."
With the aim to meet an increasing consumer demand for natural colour cosmetics and sunscreens, Gattefossé has been working for six years to find a composition that provides a concrete solution to natural water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion issues.
"We have carefully selected three raw materials that are reacted together by esterification and interesterification. The association of a low freeglycerol grade of polyglycerol-6, 12-hydroxystearic acid and ricinoleic acid allow us to obtain a supple structure that stabilizes without need for a co-emulsifier. The insaturated chain brings fluidity to the final emulsion and gives textures that present easy spreading capacity," explains Maxime Nollet, research scientist specialized in lipid chemistry at Gattefossé.
Dubbed Emulium Illustro, an innovative W/O emulsifier of natural origin, designed principally for pigmented formulations and sing a patented technology based upon polyglycerol esters.
According to Gattefossé, Emulium Illustro demonstrates superior performance and stability compared to other W/O emulsifiers on the market. "Flexible, easy to use and suitable for cold processing, this new ingredient enables the formulation of fluid textures that are comfortable to wear and bring a soft and hydrated feel to the skin," highlights the French supplier of cosmetic ingredients, a renown specialist in lipid chemistry and plant extraction.
Of particular interest in colour and sunscreen formulations, Emulium Illustro can also be used to formulate innovative textures for skincare.
Emulium Illustro scooped the Gold Innovation Award in the Functional Ingredient category at in-cosmetics Global in Paris.

Railway Society Invites Public To Meeting, Next Week
People concerned about the future of the rail line in Cape Breton are invited to a public meeting, next week.
The meeting is being organized by the community group formed after railway owners Genesee and Wyoming announced plans to abandon the Point Tupper to Sydney line.
The Scotia Rail Development Society also plans to name new committees at the meeting.
Society member Father Greg MacLeod says a board of directors as well as technical, public education and public policy committees will be set up.
He add it's important to look at potential long-term users for the line as well as focusing on drumming up more traffic in the short-term.
Recently released reports commissioned by the rail advisory committee appointed by the province say it will cost more than $30 million over five years to bring the Sydney subdivision of the railway up to standard.
Next week's meeting takes place on Wednesday at the Joan Harris Cruise Pavilion in Sydney at 3:30 in the afternoon.

A former college and professional football player and his girlfriend have been arrested and charged in connection with the abuse and death of a five-year-old child.
Various national U.S. media sources have reported that Cierre Wood (pictured left) and Amy Taylor (pictured right) are facing criminal charges of murder, child neglect, and child abuse, according to a spokesperson for the Las Vegas Metro Police Department.
Wood, 28, and Taylor, 26, were arrested Tuesday (April 9) are now in the custody of law enforcement officials in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Clark County Detention Center. Wood and Taylor were in a relationship and lived together with Taylor's five-year-old daughter.
The small, ravaged child was at a Las Vegas hospital Tuesday night where she was eventually pronounced dead. Police have claimed that the five-year-old was beaten to death by Wood. An autopsy is being conducted to determine the official cause of death.
Initially, Wood and Taylor were arrested and charged only with abuse and neglect. Wood was released first after posting a bond of $5,000 dollars. By Thursday morning (April 11), Taylor was also in the process of posting a $5,000 dollar bond and getting released.
However, Wood was re-arrested and charged with murder when the Clark County District Attorney's office upgraded the charges in his original indictment for child abuse and neglect. He was recently due in court on Thursday morning regarding the charge upgrade.
According to People Magazine, scant details were available about Wood's early Thursday court hearing. There is no awareness of whether or not he has retained an attorney, entered a plea, or specifics concerning the amount of any new bond that has been set.
Typically, when a child murder victim is involved, prosecutors and police officials are mum about details in a such a case, which is standard operating procedure.
Wood was a star running back at Notre Dame University. However, he had a very limited career in the NFL with several different teams, including the New England Patriots. Just prior to his arrest, the accused child killer played in the Canadian Football League.

This job was a great break for us when, in 1999, Murray O Laoire Architects and the OPW commissioned us to design and make the VIP lounge, the Director's office and meeting room furniture for this exposition.
This job included new designs for the Pav Lounge Chair co-designed with Anthony Cleary the Toraigh and Achill Meeting tables, the Urban Coffee tables and a directors desk and sideboard designed and built by George Butler - all built in our workshop in North Great Georges Street, Dublin.
Anthony, George and myself drove to Hannover via England and Holland to do the installation located right beside the Italian Pavillion - which was furiously being worked on to get it finished. Our pavillion was all ready in time being built by German Builders. This was a great experience to both see our work on an international stage but also see all of the other country pavilions and visit all of the great architecture and design all around.
Good times working with the architects Sean O Laoire and Bernard Gilna and the crew of Irish artists and German builders where our Credenza featured the famous famine boat of John Behan.
This collection was returned to Ireland held in storage by the OPW and today I wonder where it ended up. We were nominated for an Institute of Designers in Ireland award in 2000 for the Pav Lounge chair however the chair was stolen from the RDS where it was being exhibited and ended up on Garda Patrol!
We have a number of these pieces retained in our collection in our showroom, so please get in touch if you're interested in learning more about this piece of Irish design history. The entire experience of making work and showing in Hanover really made us feel we were in the 21st century and even the tram stops had theme music especially composed by Kraftwerk - always a good thing by me.

Hi all,
I have been trying to configure my policy to validate an external JWT, but it is failing the validation saying
"The Token's Signature resulted invalid when verified using the Algorithm: HmacSHA256".
I have tested the JWT token on JWT.IO and all looks okay there.
I am at a loss! I wish Apigee would have told me more in the error message.
I am creating JWT using HS256 algorithm, using Microsoft's System.IdentityModel.Tokens.Jwt .Net library.
For example, this JWT has been created by the same algorithm:
eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ1bmlxdWVfbmFtZSI6Im1pcyIsIm5iZiI6MTUyNDU1NzkyNCwiZXhwIjoxNTUzNTg4MzI0LCJpYXQiOjE1MjQ1NTc5MjR9.7YjJNl2b4f8J6zoVETw9kQnO C6W9FxZQTECL9mXzgBE
The above JWT will be valid for a few days, if someone can try this out.
Help! Please let me know if you want more information.
This is my first message on these forums, so please help me provide more information in this context.
Calling out to @Omid Tahouri, @Dino.
Rahul Kumar
Hi Rahul,
are you still experiencing problems? I've been away from my desk and haven't answered questions for a few days.
If so, please post the configuration of your policy. You wrote:
I have been trying to configure my policy to validate an external JWT,...
But you didn't show the configuration you tried.
The JWT you posted looks fine. To validate it within Apigee , you need to configure the VerifyJWT policy with the correct algorithm and Secret Key. If you are using the Java callout policy, then it's a different configuration, but you didn't specify one way or the other which policy you're using!
Hi Dino,
Thanks for responding!
This is the JWT validation policy I am using:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <VerifyJWT async="false" continueOnError="false" enabled="true" name="Verify-JWT-1"> <DisplayName>Verify JWT-1</DisplayName> <Algorithm>HS256</Algorithm> <Source>mis.jwt</Source> <SecretKey> <Value ref="private.secret"/> </SecretKey> <IgnoreUnresolvedVariables>false</IgnoreUnresolvedVariables> </VerifyJWT>
The two variables are self-explanatory.
I have checked their values are correctly picked.
I hope this answers your question?
Please let me know if there anything else I need to provide.
ok let me look. I haven't generated tokens with the .NET class. I'll try that and see if I can get a sample that works.
Answer by Dino-at-Google · May 02, 2018 at 06:52 PM
I've looked and it works for me here. When using .NET libraries to create a HS256 token, I can validate the token using the Apigee Edge policy.
The .NET code I used to generate the token is like this:
void Run() { var now = DateTime.UtcNow; var securityKey = new Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens. SymmetricSecurityKey(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(_passphrase)); var signingCredentials = new Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens.SigningCredentials(securityKey, "HS256"); var header = new JwtHeader(signingCredentials); var payload = new JwtPayload { { "unique_name", _name }, { "scope", "https://apigee.com/example"}, { "iat", RenderAsEpoch(now)}, { "nbf", RenderAsEpoch(now)}, { "exp", RenderAsEpoch(now.AddSeconds(_expiry))} }; var secToken = new JwtSecurityToken(header, payload); var handler = new JwtSecurityTokenHandler(); var tokenString = handler.WriteToken(secToken); Console.WriteLine("\ntoken:\n" + tokenString); var decodedToken = handler.ReadToken(tokenString); Console.WriteLine("\nDecoded: \n"+ decodedToken); }
This is my policy configuration.
<VerifyJWT name="Verify-JWT-HS256-BasicNoAudience"> <Algorithm>HS256</Algorithm> <Source>inbound.jwt</Source> <SecretKey> <Value ref="private.secretkey"/> </SecretKey> </VerifyJWT>
Initially I saw a verification failure. Upon further review, I had a mistake in the policy configuration. I had an incorrect value in the Secret key. When I verified the key was what I thought it was, it worked just fine.
That worked perfectly! Thanks for your help @Dino! Really appreciated.
I was creating the token differently. Although the JWT produced was valid, it wasn't validating correctly at Apigee. Just for reference, here was my token generation code, if you can spot something:
public static string GenerateToken(string username, int expireMinutes = 20) { var symmetricKey = Convert.FromBase64String(Secret); var tokenHandler = new JwtSecurityTokenHandler(); var now = DateTime.UtcNow; var tokenDescriptor = new SecurityTokenDescriptor { Subject = new ClaimsIdentity(new[] { new Claim( ClaimTypes.UserData, "IsValid", ClaimValueTypes.String, "(local)" ) }), Issuer = "self", Audience = "https://www.avengers.co.uk", Expires = now.AddMinutes(Convert.ToInt32(expireMinutes)), SigningCredentials = new SigningCredentials(new SymmetricSecurityKey(symmetricKey), SecurityAlgorithms.HmacSha256), }; var stoken = tokenHandler.CreateToken(tokenDescriptor); var token = tokenHandler.WriteToken(stoken); return token; }
Yes - it's hard to know for sure, but I think it's probable that the symmetricKey used in your .NET program is different from the symmetric (Secret) key you are using in the Apigee Edge policy.
The Convert.FromBase64String() function returns a byte[] from a string that is in base64 format. You haven't showed me that string (that's a good thing). But I'm wondering, how do you perform the similar conversion in the Apigee Edge policy? There are ways to do base64-conversions in Apigee Edge, but you didn't mention them. So maybe you missed that step?
The way I've set up my .NET code and policy in the answer above is to use a passphrase and just get the UTF-8 bytes from that. The key is the password. Using a passphrase as a key illustrates the point, proves that a JWT created in a .NET app can be verified by Apigee Edge. We knew that would be possible, anyway, because JWT is a simple standard, but it's nice to see it working.
But If you know anything about crypto, you know that it's not a good idea, for a production system to use the password as the key. It works well enough, but it's not what you would consider "secure". For more on why, see here or here. Basically, using a direct encoding of the passphrase makes hacks too easy.
When doing encryption using a passphrase, to make it harder to hack, the industry has settled on the concept of "password-based key derivation", by which an encryption key is derived from a password, but the key is not the password. There is an acronym (so you know it's legit): PBKDF2. And there's even an RFC defining how to do it - RFC 2898. .NET has a built in function for deriving a key this way: Rfc2898DeriveBytes. With Java, it's a little harder, but still pretty easy.
Hi @Dino,
Thanks for the great response once again. You are correct - I didn't perform the step of decoding the base64 string on Apigee. That must be the problem. I will give that a shot.
Just to conclude the discussion, this was my way of creating the key:
var hmac = new HMACSHA256(); var key = Convert.ToBase64String(hmac.Key);

During the holidays, a lot of families end up traveling whether by plane or road tripping in the car. It can be hard to keep the little ones entertained on long trips without internet. Today I'm excited to be sharing a huge list of the best apps for kids that don't need wifi or data!
Here are the ones that ended up being our favorites (but I've included the entire list of your recommendations at the bottom of the post).
YouTube Red [Free trial, then $7.99/mo]. This is a great app that allows you to download youtube content to your phone. Fos is obsessed with Art For Kids Hub videos right now, so I downloaded six or seven of them before our flight so he could draw on the plane. Then I deleted them and downloaded a bunch more for the flight home. When I signed up, it had a 3 months free trial deal, but I think currently it's 1 month free.
Netflix App [FREE – need a paid account to log in]. If you already have a netflix account, this is a really great app to have for traveling. You can download episodes straight to your phone so you can watch them without streaming.
Stack the States [$2.99] We LOVED this one. It has trivia about the states, and when you get the correct answer, the state falls down onto a platform and you try to stack them up to reach a designated line. Some of the states are not very easy to balance and your stack comes crashing down. I played it too and had a blast.
Tozzle [$2.99]. This a great drag and drop puzzle game for toddlers and little kids. I also love that it automatically has a parental lock.
Tozzle Words [$1.99]. This is a great one for kids learning to spell. It has the same drag and drop system as Tozzle. My only complaint about it is that it doesn't seem to have any kind of direction that tells you what you're supposed to do. It gives you a few clues here and there of where you're supposed to click, but I had a hard time getting the train to go where it was supposed to, and the animals to do what they were supposed to. But it's still educational and fun.
Quick Math Jr. [FREE] This one is fun for early learners. Simple math and counting, and you earn pieces to build your own monster.
Sudoku [FREE] My almost eight year old is really into Sudoku lately, so I downloaded this app right before we left. My husband actually ended up playing it while the kids were watching a movie, so it's good for all ages 😉
Duck Duck Moose TRUCKS [FREE] San is obsessed with trucks right now so this was a great app for him. It's very basic, but you can tap the different trucks and make them splash in the mud and then go through the car wash, pick up the garbage and recycling, or scoop up and dump dirt with a dump truck and digger. He spent a good amount of time on this app during our flights.
Below are all the other apps you shared, but I wanted to share one other quick tip…
Have you heard of Guided Access??
It's a capability on your iPhone that allows you to lock the phone in a single app, so if your toddler pushes the home button it doesn't automatically bump them off and cause frustration.
Get to it in your Settings app > General > Accessibility > Guided Access.
You set a passcode so you can unlock it, and then to start Guided Access, triple-click the home button on your phone when you're in the app. To unlock it, triple-click again and enter your passcode.
This is seriously a mom's best friend. Turn yours on right now!

An interest-only mortgage is an alternate to the conventional, fixed rate home loan. With the interest-only mortgage, you pay no more than the interest payment to get a time period. There are benefits to having an interest-only mortgage. These mortgages let you stretch your power to use extra money to pay expenses also to purchase a house. However, there are certain drawbacks to such loans, particularly when the interest-only period expires.
Your mortgage payment consists of two variables– interest and principal. The the key is the real cost of the property you bought. The curiosity is the price you pay for funding the house, on the the key. In a conventional mortgage, your payment will be placed on both parts. But to the interest part of the outstanding loan, your payments are employed only in an interest-only home mortgage. This lets you create defers and a lesser monthly payment repayments to get several years.
Interest -only mortgages last to get some time period at the start of the outstanding loan period. In accordance with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the interest-only period can endure to ten years of the outstanding loan for the initial three, with respect to the periods. After the curiosity-only period expires, you start to make repayments on the the curiosity and also the the main, as you'll on a conventional mortgage that is fixed.
There are a number of different varieties of curiosity-only mortgages. Fixed rate curiosity-only mortgages function a rate of interest which never changes for the length of the mortgage even with the curiosity-only period expires. An adjustable-fee mortgage using an interest-only period signifies that after the curiosity-only part of the loan expires, you maybe not only spend on the the key and curiosity, your loan's rate of interest is subject to change, generally annually. There's additionally a payment-alternative adjustable-price mortgage which allows one to pick your payment monthly, including a pastime-only payment.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation provides an instance for an $180,000 mortgage with a five-yr curiosity-only period. In a fixedrate mortgage, the curiosity-only payment could be $1,035 monthly for five years, and then rise to $1,261 in the sixth yr. For a pursuit-only adjustable-price mortgage, the curiosity-only payment could be $960 monthly, and after that go up month when it per to $1,261 expires. In a payment-alternative adjustable-fee mortgage, you may pay as tiny as $630 monthly. However, when the curiosity-only period expires, the payment per month could increase month. per to $1,308 That presumes the rate of interest stays constant.
There are a lot of drawbacks to having a curiosity-only alternative, in accordance with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. One problem is what the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation calls payment jolt. In some instances, it is possible to view your mortgage repayments double, as well as triple, because you took out the mortgage if interest prices have shot-up. Another is what's called negative-amortization. That's when your repayments don't upping your entire payment cover the curiosity owed and also the lender tacks on the curiosity to the conclusion of your mortgage. And, in the event the worth of your house falls, equity could be lost by you to the point at which you owe more as opposed to house will probably be worth.

Tony Hawk The Pro Skater In Digiy Land
This isn't really one of my favorite games when it came out, I use to just play it with my nephew Dwan and he was really good at it. His other friend Marsan, was also good at it I was average.
But the game itself of course as most might be thinking right off, is about pulling bad-ass skateboard tricks off for big points. Players will have to learn different moves like grinding off of guard rails while balancing themselves, crazy flips that seem impossible, or high-flying aerials that are seemingly death-denying acts (And Yea If You Mess Up A High Flying Aerial Move Your Character In The Game Will Feel The Hurt From Landing The Wrong Way).
Now you have to understand each one of those are just single moves that you can pull off in the game, but what happens if you combine an aerial with a ridiculous flip and say you started all of that from grinding a rail from a structure 15 feet high LOL..
If you pull that off correctly, you would get a sh*t load of points for the effort.
And if you are playing against others you can win against them or vice-versa, depending on who racks up the largest combos. Other factors like time also play into your overall score or bonuses that can be added to your score.
Then it's also something called the "flow meter", that is built up as the player performs their moves rallying towards huge combos that can help them to crush their opponent's score if of course again they don't screw up their combos while doing so.. And if you had points built up and you were to fall off the skate board, they get taken away except for what you earned at that point thus far.
(LOL Grinding On The Guardrail 20 Feet Up With A Boom Box In Hand With Perfect Balance My Ass!)
The game has a total of 9 levels all together.
Then it was the "career mode", that you had to start from the beginning into the game, and it was these "hidden tapes" that the player had to find in the game.
This is where Dwan and his friend Marsan, where really good at doing because they knew where the tapes was LOL I didn't.
And finding all of the tapes would eventually spell out the secret word "SKATE", and from there would determine if you would get either the "bronze", "silver", or "gold" medal which varies depending on the overall performance of the player's moves and allowed time to find the types.
So in "multiplayer mode", you can compete with friends to see who is the best between any two that challenge each other.
And in case you wondered, yea Tony Hawk himself was signed to a deal with Activision, to star in his own game. So when you are pulling off some of those moves on the skateboard, you're basically pulling off Hawk's moves that have been captured in a game and is showing on the television screen or whatever you have to watch it on (The Main Menu Music Would Get Me Hyped-up To Play It Everytime haha).
So check it out below..

A matchup between the Indiana Pacers and San Antonio Spurs is looking less like a potential NBA Finals preview than it did earlier in the season.
While league-leading San Antonio is on the brink of its longest winning streak ever, Indiana is stumbling toward the playoffs and in danger of losing its grip on the top spot in the Eastern Conference.
The visiting Spurs aim for an 18th straight victory Monday night against the Pacers.
San Antonio (57-16) is three games ahead of Oklahoma City for the NBA's best record after tying a team mark with its 17th straight win, 96-80 at home against New Orleans on Saturday. The Spurs, who also won 17 in a row from Feb. 29-March 31, 1996, also need to go 6-4 over their final 10 games to tie a franchise-best 63-19 finish in 2005-06.
The Pacers (52-22) have let their lead over Miami for first place in the East dwindle to one game after dropping five of seven and nine of their last 15 games. They awoke for an 84-83 victory over the Heat on Wednesday, but otherwise have appeared listless, falling 90-76 against a 30-45 Cleveland squad on Sunday.
Indiana was 29 of 78 from the field and is shooting 36.6 percent while averaging just 77.2 points over its last five games. Paul George was 5 of 13 against the Cavaliers with 15 points and is averaging 17.1 on 30.8 percent shooting over his last eight contests. He had been scoring 22.3 points per game while shooting 43.9 percent.
"We can't figure out a way to perform better," said David West, who is shooting 34.4 percent over his last five games and was assessed a technical and a flagrant-1 following an exchange with Cleveland's Matthew Dellavedova and Spencer Hawes.
"We've done what you do," West said. "We've had team meetings. We've had players-only meetings. We've had players and the coaches (meetings). We're kind of looking for answers right now, and things don't get any easier."
The Spurs have gotten just six points from Tony Parker on 3-of-14 shooting over the last two games, but still defeated Denver and New Orleans by a combined 47 points. Marco Belinelli helped compensate for Parker's ineffectiveness, totaling 45 points on 10-of-14 shooting from 3-point range.
San Antonio has gotten 29.1 assists per game during its winning streak after previously averaging 24.4.
"It is sweet to be a part of that," said Manu Ginobili, who scored 15 against the Pelicans. "It is not something that happens very often because it is a long spread of game, a month or two. Here or there you have a bad game or the opponent has a bad one, but a lot of things have combined for us to have this type of streak. We played really well and we are healthy."
The Spurs' 11-game winning streak in the series ended with a 111-100 home loss to Indiana on Dec. 7 - a game in which the Pacers outscored them 67-37 over the second and third quarters and finished with seven players in double figures.
Parker had 13 points and just two assists, while Tim Duncan was 3 for 10 with 10 points. Duncan's six rebounds in that one ended a 12-game run with at least 10 versus Indiana, which shot 53.5 percent from the floor.
George scored 28 points and was 4 of 4 from beyond the arc, while West added 20 on 9-of-12 shooting.

Earlier today, Impact Wrestling announced on Twitter that Taya Valkyrie will not be at this Sunday's Bound for Glory PPV or the TV tapings that will take place in the days after. Impact did say they look forward to seeing her in 2018.
Due to circumstances beyond our control @TheTayaValkyrie will not be at #BFG2017 or the tapings. We look forward to seeing Taya in 2018. IMPACT (@IMPACTWRESTLING) November 4, 2017
Taya responded shortly after saying that she is "devastated," is out due to "personal reasons," but will be back in January. She plans on posting a video and talking with fans today. Valkyrie was scheduled to face Rosemary in a Red Wedding (First Blood) match at the PPV, and from her perspective, she still plans on having the match with Rosemary in January.
I'll post a video this afternoon and chat w all of you. 2 say I'm disappointed is an understatement. I'm devastated, but I'll be back in Jan https://t.co/n8HCEueKHW Lucha Royalty (@TheTayaValkyrie) November 4, 2017
So much for the first blood match against Rosemary ?????? Ty Nickerson (@MissNickerson30) November 4, 2017
If you think for one second that that isn't going to happen in January, then u don't know me or Rosemary https://t.co/GyUTlGktAa Lucha Royalty (@TheTayaValkyrie) November 4, 2017
And just to clarify to the "know it alls", I didn't "pull out" of BFG, I am un able to be there to whole week due to personal reasons— Lucha Royalty (@TheTayaValkyrie) November 4, 2017
Impact did not state what they plan to do with Rosemary, nor has she commented yet on social media. There is a triple threat match for the Knockouts Championship between Gail Kim, Allie, and Knockouts Champion Sienna, so it's possible Rosemary could be placed in that match.

It was a chilly January morning and when I walked into the their home for our scheduled photo session, I immediately noticed everyone was still in their pajamas. I thought for a second "Am I early?"
Then Shannon (AKA: Mom) said, "You know, this is sorta just who we are… would it be OK to do our session dressed in our pajamas?" UMMM? My first thought: "Oh my goodness!! I love you! I love you! I love you!" But, having never met before, I like to think I was cool (ha, doubtful, but I like to think!) and said something like "YES! I think that is perfect!" Truthfully, I don't remember what I said… I just knew this was going to be my kind of session!
… and it was! More than was!!
Everyone was so relaxed, so real, and just… well, themselves… and it shined through in the photos, I think. I feel like I was able to do my thing and capture… a genuine, day in your life…kind of images. My. All. Time. Favorite. The stuff that I live for… that I think is so priceless… and will just pull at your heart as years pass… those moments that really make up our lives. My heart was so, so, so happy to be able to capture them for this family.
As you can imagine, I walked out of out session together on cloud 9! I have to admit, I really hope 2013 brings me more sessions like this one… they make me happy!
Shannon, thank you for just opening your door… and giving me to the opportunity to capture what life is all about!

Will Haskell named to Forbes '30 under 30' list
State Senator Will Haskell (D-26) was named to Forbes Magazine's '30 Under 30' list on Tuesday, Dec. 3.
Every year, the magazine recognizes 600 individuals under the age of 30 for their accomplishments, organizing them in groups of 30 sorted by industry. Haskell received recognition in the magazine's Law and Policy category, along with Nebraska Republican State Senator Julie Slama and other millennial activists and leaders.
"I was shocked to see my name included in the Forbes '30 Under 30' list," Haskell said in a press release. "This is an incredible honor, and I have been humbled all morning as I read about the accomplishments of the other people Forbes has chosen to highlight," he said.
He added, "This is obviously about more than one senate seat in Connecticut. It's about a generation that's rolling up their sleeves and building a government that makes us proud. We're a generation that sees the world differently. We know that climate change isn't an academic anxiety, but an existential threat to our continued existence. We know the price of earning a degree has skyrocketed, because we're paying it. I'm grateful for the opportunity to work on these issues in Connecticut's State Senate."
The Forbes '30 Under 30' list, which was first published in 2011, recognizes individuals in categories ranging from finance professionals to scientists to celebrities, with those recognized ranging from actors and Saturday Night Live writers to reporters, venture capitalists and educators. Haskell's category was judged by Carrie Goldberg, Jon Huntsman, Laurence Tribe and Michael Tubbs.
Haskell represents the towns of Redding, Ridgefield, Wilton, and parts of Bethel, Weston, Westport, and New Canaan.

Norfolk equestrian centre closes after confirmed case of equine flu
PUBLISHED: 10:26 18 February 2019 | UPDATED: 17:27 19 February 2019
An equestrian centre in north Norfolk has been forced to close due to a case of equine flu.
Lime Kiln Farm in Thursford, near Fakenham, has shut and all half-term pony club competitions have been cancelled after a vet confirmed on Saturday, February 16, that a horse brought over from Ireland had the flu.
Alison Lee, who runs the centre, said: "The horse in question first started to display symptoms on Thursday morning.
"We immediately put him into isolation and called our vet, who reassured us, as he thought it was nothing more than a snotty nose, however in the current climate he took swabs as a precaution and advised me to carry on as normal."
Ms Lee said the horse had not left the yard and no other horses had shown symptoms. She said, however, the centre's other horses were being closely monitored and having their temperatures taken twice a day.
Ms Lee added: "Naturally all competitions and arena hire will be suspended, with immediate effect. The vets have stressed that with correct management, there should be no further issues.
"We are now obviously not moving horses off or onto the yard."
Ms Lee said equine flu was "endemic in the country all the time", and there had been two confirmed cases in Norfolk last summer, which were not publicised because it is not a notifiable disease.
She said there were currently about 22 horses at the centre and, other than the animal affected, all were fit and well.
Ms Lee said assuming it was an isolated case, the centre would be open again in two week's time.
