Note: This article includes mentions of suicide. In 1998, it was impossible to turn on a television or pass a newsstand without encountering the name "Monica Lewinsky." As her affair with former president Bill Clinton became public knowledge and torpedoed her budding career in the nation's capital, it's likely she never expected the long-standing infamy she would endure in its aftermath, either. After all, the then 20-something White House intern said: "I never expected to fall in love with the president," according to the Washington Post.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.
