SPLICEDwire | "Home for the Holidays" review (1995) Jodie Foster, Holly Hunter, Anne Bancroft, Charles Durning, Robert ... She is the kind of actress who so fully embodies a character that when watching her movies you get a sense of her character's whole life, not just the time she spends on the screen. She is such a talent that she can be in a serial killer thriller and in the funniest comedy of the year, in the same cineplex at the same time and even studio heads don't think it's overkill. One of the joys of "Home for the Holidays" is that it transcends the joke and delves deep into each character to provide a recognizable family of real people, yet does it within continual laughter. www.splicedonline.com /95andbefore/home4holidays.html   (757 words)

Home for the Holidays - TrueU.org : Student Lounge It's wonderful to go home for the holidays, of course, but families often find that the college Christmas reunion has its own stresses and strains, especially if this is your first extended stay at home since heading off to school. Shelby arrived home enthralled and happy and somehow feeling decidedly different — only to be greeted with her parents' expectation that she would be home in bed by 10:30, as she had been six months before, as a high school senior.

Home for the Holidays: Preventing Foodborne Illness at Family Gatherings Foodborne illness is a frequent uninvited guest during the holiday season, and it's often a food handler who allows it to come in and set up housekeeping. Though most foodborne disease outbreaks don't occur during the holidays (they occur most often in the summer), the holidays warrant special attention because certain foods and food practices popular during the season can increase the risk for foodborne illness. Even though the holidays present a number of unique food-safety challenges, consumers have plenty of places to go for good information on how to do things right. www.fda.gov /fdac/features/2000/600_food.html   (1507 words)
