Parsing Date is not implemented the same across browsers.

Either you (pre)parse/format it by yourself or maybe you can try something like http://momentjs.com/

More detailed - EcmaScript5 Spec states:

ECMAScript defines a string interchange format for date-times based upon a simplification of the ISO 8601 Extended Format. The format is as follows: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ

[...]

The function first attempts to parse the format of the String according to the rules called out in Time String Format (15.9.1.15) [above paragraph]. If the String does not conform to that format the function may fall back to any implementation-specific heuristics or implementation-specific date formats.

Testing on IE, Firefox and Chrome.

var d = new Date("16 Jan 2014 10:56:24 am PST");
console.log(d);

good luck!
