It's been a big week for the Upper Haight, and getting bigger. Here's what's what.
First, in crime and mayhem, reports are circulating of a rash of bicycle muggings in the Panhandle, in which riders are attacked and thrown from their bikes. Police yesterday said they were working on the issue with plainclothes cops and after-dark coverage of the park:
We have plainclothes teams and nighttime units working on the panhandle issue. I will be sure to tweet updates as they are released

This afternoon at 2pm, Amoeba is hosting a free show with From Indian Lakes at 1855 Haight Street. The shop is also offering 20% off all turntables and headphones tomorrow.
This afternoon also marks the return of the Urban Air Market in the Lower Haight. Head down the hill to Haight between Pierce and Fillmore from 11am to 6pm, if you're so inclined.
And finally, this weekend is also Fleet Week, so catch a sailor if you can and don't let the noise get you down.
Steady on, be safe.
