Faith Inspires: The Ignatian Spirituality Project
By Claudia Assis and Barbara Kollmeyer, MarketWatch
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) ? Crude-oil futures fell sharply on Monday, hit by a disappointing report on U.S. employment late last week and ahead of international talks over Iran?s nuclear program.
Crude-oil futures for May delivery /quotes/zigman/2203141 CLK2 -1.78% ?fell $1.90, or 1.8%, to $101.41 a barrel in the New York Mercantile Exchange.
The market reopened Monday after being closed for the Good Friday holiday. On Thursday, oil rose $1.84, or 1.8%, to settle at $103.31 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Doubts about the strength of the U.S. economic recovery crept into oil markets after data from the Labor Department on Friday showed 120,000 jobs were generated in March. That fell short of expectations for a gain of 210,000. Read more in Economic Report
How will Bernanke frame jobs data?
Fed chairman Ben Bernanke has a big speech Monday night, where he may be asked to discuss Friday's weak jobs report.
Upbeat economic assessments of the U.S. and global economy tend to be positive for oil prices, as they stoke hopes for more oil consumption.
The opposite often weighs on the commodity on the view that hard-pressed consumers and industries will reduce their demand for oil.
U.S. stocks opened lower in Wall Street, while gold futures rose as the disappointing jobs data fueled some talks of more economic stimulus.
The dollar retreated against the Japanese yen, which is often viewed as a safe-haven currency, amid the rekindled concerns about the U.S. economy.
Meanwhile, data from China showed consumer prices rose more than expected in March. Read more on China inflation
Oil was also under pressure ahead of talks taking place this week between Iran and major global powers, including the U.S. and China over the country?s nuclear program. Media reports said those talks are due to begin Friday in Istanbul, Turkey.
Oil has been gaining on fears that tensions over Iran would cut into global oil supplies.
Meanwhile, May natural gas futures /quotes/zigman/2199351 NGK12 +0.10% ?gained less than 1 cent to $2.09 per million British thermal units.
Natural-gas futures ended at the $2.09 level on Thursday, their lowest settlement since early February 2002 after data showed a bigger-than-expected increase in inventories.
May gasoline /quotes/zigman/2249548 RBK2 -2.11% ?fell 5 cents, or 1.6%, to $3.29 a gallon, after closing 1 cent higher to $3.34 a gallon on Thursday
May heating oil /quotes/zigman/2249539 HOK2 -1.24% ?fell 3 cents, or 0.9%, to $3.14 a gallon, after closing up 1 cent to $3.17 per gallon on Thursday.

Profitable Careers in the Construction Industry | Career Task.com ...
There are tons of jobs on hand in the construction business that plays major importance in the industry, and many, if not most contractors turn to recruiting and staffing companies to fill the team for the projects.
With the rapid growth of construction industry, more and more private and government sectors invest in this market, and as a matter of fact, even public investment companies are joining in this market, making the industry so much bigger than before. The multi-billion dollar industry of construction is widely spread all over the world, covering suppliers, contractors, sub-contractors, producers, engineers, designers, installers and many more specialized professionals. Thus, the variety of jobs needed in construction speaks of how huge this market has become.
The trend of decomposing older establishments and reinstating new ones with modern designs is a global phenomenon in construction industry, and with every little innovation requires a lot of creative and professional personnel to get the job done. Here are ten of the hottest jobs available in construction business today:
1. Architects
These are the brains behind every design of the construction. They work and make the whole plan of the building for every detail of the design, from safety, sturdiness and aesthetics of the building. They are also amongst the highest paid professionals in the industry.
2. Civil Engineers
These professionals look more into the technical part of the construction. They implement those plans drawn out by the architects, thus they always work around and in close contact with the architect. Their job basically revolves more in the execution of the plans.
3. Building Services Engineers
This type of engineer works more in the essential amenities of the construction, such as installations. Their job is to provide the most cost-effective details in the interior aspects of the building, such as heating, electrical wirings, ventilation, lighting, lifts, public health, safety measures and devise, sanitation, fire protection, etc.
4. Building Surveyors
These professionals are often referred as the biggest enemies of builders and workers, as their job revolves in visiting and inspecting the construction site. They write their inspection reports, which is very important for the safety and quality of the building.
5. Electrical Engineers
The job of this kind of engineer is all about the electrical support of the building in before and after the construction.
6. Facilities Manager
This one probably is the most interesting career in construction industry. Facilities management involves both planning and implementing new facilities for the construction. Other job under their responsibilities includes upkeep and maintenance of the structure.
7. Quantity Surveyor
Their main job is to take care of all cost related to building, from sorting the initial costs to cost cutting tasks.
8. Manufacturers
Construction needs building materials, and with that, manufacturers play a very profitable big role in this business. However, this job requires a lot of investments too.
9. Suppliers
Builders don?t really deal directly to the manufacturers, as suppliers are there to act as a middleman for every transaction they want to make. They ask for the materials the builders will need, get them from the manufacturers, then sell it to the builders and earn commission on the process.
10. Contractors
These professionals take the contracts for buildings, and their job basically starts from pre-decided digits and finish with a fixed price. They?re involved right from the planning, purchasing of construction materials, down to the construction process.

Pardoned Convict's Attorneys Want Legal Fees From City Lawyers ...
CHICAGO (CBS) ? The case of an elderly man who claims Chicago Police forced him to confess to a rape more than 60 years ago is not settled yet.
As WBBM Newsradio?s Bob Conway reports, Oscar Walden Jr., 80, spent decades in prison before being pardoned in 2002. He then sued the city for $15 million.
LISTEN: WBBM Newsradio?s Bob Conway reports
Walden claims police tortured him into admitting to the rape of a white woman on Nov. 24, 1951, on the city?s South Side. Walden is African-American.
A jury ruled against Walden in the lawsuit last year, but U.S. District Judge Ruben Castillo set aside the decision and ordered a second trial, while criticizing the tactics of the city?s lawyers.
Now, the Chicago Tribune reports, Walden?s attorneys are asking that the city or the law firm that represented it ? Andrew M. Hale & Associates ? be forced to pay legal fees, amounting to more than $330,000.
The court filing by Walden?s attorneys claims that the lawyers who represented the city ? Andrew Hale and Avi Kamionski ? were also criticized by judges in other cases, the Tribune reported. In the Walden case, they supplied the jury with a graphic narrative of the rape and other evidence that was not supposed to be admitted, the newspaper reported.
In his criminal trial, Walden said he had to sleep on the floor in the old ?death row? in the basement of the Cook County Jail, where an electric chair was once located. He also testified that he had a forced circumcision when he arrived at Stateville Prison to serve his sentence after conviction, according to published reports.
Andrew M. Hale & Associates has since been removed from the case, and calls the request for fees unwarranted, the Tribune reported.
