Ca Phe Muoi co-owners Ho Thi Thanh Huong and Tran Nguyen Huu Phong. Traditional Vietnamese coffee is brewed in a phin – a metal, filtered brewing device – that’s placed over a cup or pot. And salt coffee is just one of several distinctive Vietnamese coffee drinks that might raise a few eyebrows among those who’ve yet to sample them. In fruit shake coffee – sinh to ca phe – coffee is combined with banana or avocado to produce a smoothie. And though they serve both iced and hot versions of salt coffee, they think the former is the tastiest option.

☆ Markets are adjusting to stubborn inflation. Election noise could spoil the calm

Add to that the noise surrounding the US election, and it could be a rougher second half. Central Banks in Canada and the eurozone have both cut interest rates, but inflation rose in both of those regions last month. Australia, meanwhile, saw its inflation rate rise to 4% this week, stoking fears that the Reserve Bank of Australia could soon move to raise rates again. It was already well known that no documentation was found to show who worked on the door plug. Without the bolts, the door plug incident was pretty much inevitable.

Mr. Michaels, however, will not be holing up in a broadcast booth each night to briefly summarize the dozens of Olympic events that took place. Mr. Michaels granted approval for the use of his voice. “When I was approached about this, I was skeptical but obviously curious,” Mr. Michaels said in a statement issued by the company.

Pay transparency laws are on the rise nationwide, but so is the share of companies that use the ambiguous phrase "competitive salary" to describe what they'll pay. As of May, the phrase appeared in 3% of U.S. job postings on Indeed, up from 2.5% of postings at the same time last year, the employment website told CNBC Make It. It's a small but notable increase that reflects thousands of job posts with unclear pay ranges, according to Indeed. "But without further details in the job posting, the phrase puts the onus on the job seeker to know what a competitive pay range may look like." If you're applying to jobs without clear pay ranges, here are a few ways to discuss salary during the hiring process.
