7. Quote of the Week
A superior court judge this week sentenced Stone Temple Pilots singer Scott Weiland to nearly a year in jail for violating his parole by using drugs. Weiland, who was originally arrested for drug possession in 1995, was also treated for an overdose in July of this year.
Upon sending him to prison, the judge noted that Weiland is "killing himself" and "has to be punished."
