These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, United States, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Blog shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Middlesex County, Massachusetts. You consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
12. Miscellaneous
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
