According to the reports of the Santa Cruz Sentinel on Monday night, September 7, at least two men were stabbed near the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.

The arcade, Coconut Grove and section of Beach street was roped off to investigate what was going on. At first, the policemen could not figure out whether or not this was a random attack or targeted. They found their results the following day.

On September 8, three men were arrested in suspicion of attempted homicide and for participating in criminal street gang: Fernando Valencia, 21, and Pedro Espinoza, 27, who are both from San Jose. The third man was 36-year-old Miguel De La Rosa from Tracy.

The stabbing occurred because of a fight that started near the Boardwalk and resulted in the injury of the 27-year-old man and 19-year-old man from San Jose. The 19-year-old was able to walk away from the hospital with minor injuries, but the 27-year-old suffered serious injuries and was lifted to a trauma center for treatment.

The officers recovered a knife and a billy club from the scene, and they believe that this fight had begun from gang tension.

Officers are still searching for a fourth suspect who is a Hispanic man around age 20 through 30 who wore a white T-shirt and dark jeans.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
