Is it love or is it just infatuation? Find out.

A girl may be ‘in love’ with a boy and vice versa but it may only be infatuation. Infatuation and love are said to be difficult to distinguish from each other but that is really not so. For a novice relationship, the two may not know the difference between love and infatuation, and thinking that they both are really in love and cannot stay without each other, they may take the serious step of getting married. It is very common for umpteen couples to take the marriage vow when their relationship is still in the stage of infatuation with no love in it. Such marriages do not last long and generally end up in a disaster. Love is marked by patience and those in love are never in a hurry to get married. But, if those who married in haste while in the phase of infatuation in their relationship, develop self control, patience, unselfishness and genuine concern for each other, the infatuation can flower into love over some months or years and the love relationship that so develops can bring the two to enjoy a long lasting blissful marriage  founded on love.

A relationship begins with infatuation and the joy of being together is found to be exciting to both; the two cannot see each others’ faults and shortcomings, and just long to be close to each other all the time. Everything looks simply wonderful without any flaws and the day looks shinier and brighter than ever before.
Infatuation for some does turn into love but this only occurs over a period of time, maybe over some months, and not instantly. Slowly yet steadily, the roots of love form and grow to strengthen a relationship making it durable and long-lasting. For others, who do not inculcate love in their relationship stay infatuated with one another for the rest of their togetherness; such relationship is likely to fizzle out finally.
It is vital to differentiate between infatuation and love so that one may know where their relationship stands, so as to allow it to progress on to love before contemplating marriage to his/her partner if they so desire or to know if it is only infatuation so not to think of marrying the partner but to call off the relationship. We can have a look at both the factors and see the difference.
Infatuation is a fantasy and a baseless feeling for the other partner situation. Love is not a feeling but a genuine concern for the other.  It stands on reality of the relationship. Love is complex and does not have chaos in its composition; putting it differently, where there is love, there is first internal peace and harmony in the hearts of those involved in a relationship which is then visible externally to the two involved and to the people around.

2011 Buick Regal 2.0 Turbo Now Able To Run On Ethanol

Buick Regal, a car model by General Motors of Detroit, US, was first manufactured in 1973. Its production for the American market continued till 2004 though it continued production for the Chinese market. Now, it is being re-introduced in America as a sports sedan.

The company has lately announced that its 2011 model of Buick Regal will be a flex-fuel car. This means that its turbo engine (Ecotech) of 2.0 liter capacity, with direct injection, will now run on gasoline and E85 ethanol. One main requirement of the fuel ethanol is that it requires a richer air mixture with it to function adequately. That is why it is provided with direct injectors which bring about higher flow of the fuel. A fuel sensor in the system measures the ethanol and gasoline mixture, of which 85% is allowed for ethanol. The sensor enables the engine to automatically adjust the combination to provide the desired emissions, fuel consumption and thus the desired performance. Though this advantageous change has been made to its turbo engine, the horse power of the car remains the same, at 220hp with torque of 258 lb-ft.

The engine has other new features to its credit. It now is an aluminum cylinder, sand cast block. This means that now it is relatively more silent than its predecessor with lesser vibrations and, moreover, better durability.

At present, ethanol, though produced in America, is not really cheap but since there are more and more ethanol gas stations opening up in the country due to its high demand as more car manufacturers make their cars flex-fuel, ethanol is likely to become cheaper and so more in demand.

General Motors plans to make more than 50% of its car models favoring flex-fuel by 2012, though it has already manufactured 5 million and more flex-fuel cars in the last 15 years.
