Waive Overdue Fees at North End Library

Get your library record sorted: The North End Library on Parmenter Street, along with others in Boston, is waiving fines for overdue books and other checked-out materials from today until Thanksgiving.

Stay local: Need a manicure, pedicure or wash and blow dry? Head right over to Joi Salon and & Spa Escape at 2 Atlantic Avenue. You'll be in love with yourself afterwards.

Be by the TV at 8 p.m.: The second episode of Fox's Kitchen Nightmares, that features La Galleria 33 on Salem Street, airs tonight at 8:00 p.m. It's the resolution part of the series so promised to be uplifting.

This Day in History: On November 2, 1948, the greatest upset in presidential election history took place when Democratic incumbent Harry S. Truman defeated his Republican challenger, Governor Thomas E. Dewey of New York.
