Retail gas vendors, "gas stations", have to pay up front for the gas they will ultimately sell. When gas prices are volatile and fluctuate wildly, the retailers have to accept all the speculative risk when they purchase the gas. If they pay too much at a temporary peak in gas prices, and then the price goes down sharply, they are forced to compete with other retailers who purchased their supply a little later at a much lower price and can therefore sell at a lower price. This means the retailer either "waits it out" and refuses to sell gas until the price goes back up, or sells at a loss. Contrary to general understanding, retailers make very little money on gasoline, perhaps a few pennies on the gallon. The converse scenario also exists where the retailer can be in a position to make a better profit if the supply is obtained at a low point, and the prices rise rapidly.
Ultimately the consumer is affected because fewer stations have gas when retailer hold off on refueling or just don't sell gas, creating lines and the well known panic that we have seen and are seeing again in 11/2012 NY/NJ areas.
The price volatility may not be as significant a factor in 2012 NY/NJ in the overall crisis, as there other factors, like structural damage to deployment technology along the distribution chain that is preventing delivery. However, it is likely that the perception of potential volatility around the national elections has had some negative impact...
there was an oil shortage. Pres Carter mandated that people whose license plate ended in even number got fuel one day, odd the next. So alternating for some months till supplies picked up again.
In the 1970s Intel had two major lines of products: DRAMs and microprocessors, with DRAMs being the core of its business.
Near fault lines.
the lines are caused by the plastic covering
No, fault lines cause earthquakes
They made an oil embargo, which caused higher oil prices, scarcity, and six-block-long lines of cars at the gas stations.

They are transmitted using transmission lines and cables.
Currently (2015), there are three cities in Mexico with an underground rapid transit system:Mexico City: 12 lines, 195 stations, 226.5 Km in length, 4.6 million riders/dayMonterrey: 2 lines, 31 stations, 32.5 Km in length, 0.48 million riders/dayGuadalajara: 2 lines, 29 stations, 24 Km in length, 0.24 million riders/day
Basically, all power stations adopt the same method to produce electricity. A turbine is caused torotate. A generator is attached to the shaft of the turbine. As the turbine turns, electricity is produced inthe generator. This electricity is sent out through transmission lines to a distribution station of theElectricity Board.In hydroelectric power stations, the turbine is turned by flowing water. In thermal power stations,steam is produced by heating water in a furnace which burns coal or oil. In nuclear power stations, thesteam is produced by the heat generated in the fission process.

The London Underground (the tube), has 11 lines and 270 stations.
