Family, Hold Back!: I do accounts work, so for me, everything has to balance, that's just how numbers work, plain and simple. As you say, a $400K house on a $30K salary is not simply not sustainable. And banks offering 110% on a mortgage! What planet are they on?!! The writing has been on the wall since day one. My grandparents were from the depression era, lower working class. One winter my grandmother had to use my uncle's wooden toychest as firewood. So frugality and thrift were well taught to my parents, who have passed that on to me. I think you'd be very wise to remember the lessons and pass them on to your kids, even if they don't have a need or want to use them, it's still better to know how to fish than need someone to catch them for you. - Submitted by Felyne

Jega, Wednesday, August 12: Now that we're a decade removed from the '90s electronica boom, electronic artists seem free to create ear-pleasing fusions without the pressure to innovate. Case in point, Manchester-via-L.A.'s Dylan Nathan, AKA Jega. Returning to the scene with Variance, a sprawling new double-album (on u-Ziq's Planet Mu label) that was nine years in the making, Jega's programming touch shows the natural ease of an artist who isn't self-conscious about his musical vocabulary. Whether that has any bearing on how deeply electronica has sunken into the culture at large is up for debate, but Variance is so smoothly executed it's easy to miss how masterful Jega is at extracting brilliant melodies from his soundscapes. His fondness for breakbeats aside, at its most expansive Jega's latest work evokes images of one-time labelmates Boards Of Canada re-interpreting the Blade Runner soundtrack. Which is to say that Variance is a work of considerable dramatic beauty and power, but ultimately shaped by Jega's signature sense of discretion. With Obelus, ndCv. Chop Suey, 1325 E. Madison St. 324-8000. 9 p.m. $7. Note by SABY REYES-KULKARNI
