Victim/Witness Advocate: Sandusky Sick And Disturbed
The Pennsylvania Victim/Witness Program Executive Director says the shock, outrage and disgust over the Penn State child sex abuse scandal is justified. Jennifer Storm says she has no doubt about the kind of person former Assistant Football Coach Jerry Sandusky is.
"From reading the grand jury presentment and listening to his defense, it appears that he is an extremely sick and disturbed man."
She says fired Head Football Coach Joe Paterno complied with the law by telling the athletic director about alleged sexual contact between Sandusky and a young boy, but she does not buy the argument that he reported it to his superior.
"Joe Paterno was the superior up there. Joe Paterno was that institution. If he had taken the information that was given him and reported it to the police, and stood out and said, 'I'm going to protect these kids. This needs to be reported, this kid needs to be found, he needs to be helped,' that man would have been revered as a hero. Instead we're looking at many years later. We don't even know how many other kids have been harmed since that date. He made a really, really bad judgment call."
Storm says the grand jury report is not completely clear about what Joe Paterno knew and when he knew it, but he knew enough to go to the police and stop further abuse and chose not to, and she believes the Penn State trustees made the right decision in firing him. She appeared Thursday on the WNPV talk program Comment Please by Univest.

Baby Flapper Beanie with Flower
This pattern
is available
for $3.00 USD
buy it now
This hat is an homage to the retro cloche caps or flapper beanies of the 1920's but updated with a modern twist just for baby. It uses simple single crochet stitches with the occasional double crochet stitch cluster for adornment as seen in the hat's scalloped edge. It's a quick project and great for even beginners to tackle.
The hat, which will fit head sizes of about 14" to 15" or a size 0 to 3 months, can be made in any DK or light worsted weight yarn and a size H8 / 5.00 MM crochet hook. You will need about 100 yards or so of yarn and a needle and thread (or same yarn used for hat) to sew the flower onto the hat with.
The last photo shows a hat and matching blanket made by a customer who purchased the pattern. Way to go Jan! :)

This week's news that Taser use by B.C. police has dropped 87 per cent in five years left MLA John Slater wondering how officers are managing to control potentially dangerous people.
"How many of them have been shot by police?" he asked, to which a justice ministry spokesman responded that there has been no increase in shootings.
With such a substantial drop, from 645 down to 85 Taser incidents, Slater also questioned whether police are now more exposed to dangerous situations.
An obvious response is that since the death of Robert Dziekanski at the Vancouver Airport in 2007, followed by the recommendations of former judge Thomas Braidwood in 2009, and the change in RCMP policy in spring 2010 that dictated police would only fire at people when they're hurting someone or clearly about to, police are really asking themselves if the potentially lethal use of force is warranted.
But we suspect the awareness is two-pronged — perhaps it's not just police, but also the public that has grasped how powerful Tasers are. Just the threat of using one may be enough to cause an otherwise out-of-control person to calm down. An Abbotsford police spokesman added that since the Braidwood recommendations put Taser use so in the spotlight, many officers don't even carry Tasers anymore.
In Kamloops, Taser use has held steady. In each of 2010 and 2011, the Taser option was used six times, and three times so far in 2012.
This doesn't mean one was fired all those times, it also reflects the times one was pointed at someone or the laser sight on a suspect was activated.
RCMP Staff Sgt. Grant Learned says having the Taser available gives officers the chance to control a volatile and potentially deadly suspect instead of having to resort to more lethal force.
While the drop in police Taser use is positive and police are providing valuable insights, politicians examining the status of the Braidwood recommendations need to hear from us to have the full picture.
The public will have a chance to have its say on the province's Taser-use policy on Oct. 22 and 23. Don't miss this chance to offer your insights on the matter — register by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com or send in a written submission before Nov. 2.

Liverpool are understood to be closing on deals for Chelsea's Victor Moses, PSG's Mamadou Sakho and Sporting Lisbon's Tiago Ilori.
According to Sky sources, positive discussions are ongoing regarding a possible season-long loan agreement for Moses, who is also of interest to West Brom.
The Nigeria international, who moved to Stamford Bridge from Wigan Athletic in August 2012, is yet to figure for Jose Mourinho's Blues so far this season.
Liverpool would welcome the opportunity to add Moses' creativity to their ranks, as Brendan Rodgers looks to build on a productive opening to the season which has brought back-to-back 1-0 successes.
The Reds boss is also working hard to bolster his defensive options before Monday's transfer deadline.
With the vastly-experienced Kolo Toure having picked up a knock during a Capital One Cup clash against Notts County on Tuesday, and new arrival Aly Cissokho facing up to six weeks on the sidelines, reinforcements have become a top priority.
Highly-rated Sporting Lisbon centre-half Ilori has been heavily linked with a switch to Anfield for some time now, and it is understood that the 20-year-old has travelled to England to undergo a medical and finalise a move.
Ilori could soon find himself playing alongside Paris Saint-Germain's Sakho.
The 23-year-old France international has grown frustrated at a lack of regular first-team football in the French capital and has publicly expressed a desire to move on.
PSG were initially reluctant to discuss the sale of a player who graduated out of their academy system, but Sakho is also believed to be on Merseyside to discuss personal terms and undergo a medical.
PSG manager Laurent Blanc revealed that Sakho will leave Ligue 1 with his blessing.
He said: "Sakho is not just anybody at PSG. He has been here, he has lived everything here, he was the symbol of the club.
"I would really have liked to continue working with him but he's signalled his desire to leave the club. The board and himself have found a solution. I wish him good luck."
The France international is yet to play for the club this season with Thiago Silva, Alex and new signing Marquinhos all preferred.

I ordered 9 pairs of black pumps. This was the last pair I tried on. They are amazingly comfortable. I haven't worn them for any length of time yet, but they are already ahead of my other options. I think they are true to size, but many of the other pumps felt about a half-size small, so others may find that they are a half-size big.

Gorgeous, gorgeous boots - even better in person. However (oh, how I hate that word sometimes!), they were way too narrow for me. I guess I have to admit it to myself that I just have to buy wide shoes!! Back they go....

Reviewer: Alicia S.
from Jersey City, NJ
These shoes were absolutely gorgeous and even though the heel was higher than I usually wear it wasn't the high heel that was the problem. I had to squeeze my foot into it and it really pinched my toes. I wish I had read more carefully that these seem to fit a half size small. And now they don't have a larger size anymore. Really sad! But I love Zappos! Bad fits happen I guess.

I really liked the look of this shoe. I ordered it in 3 different sizes and could not get a good fit. I have a wide foot and need more room in the toe box, when that fit it was falling off my heel. Very cute shoe so I am disappointed I have to send it back. Of course Zappos is always quick and efficient with returns.

I got these attractive boots in both colors because they are so comfortable! I recommend them highly! They felt slightly snug when I first bought the black ones, but the leather soon conformed comfortably to my foot and I wear them all the time now.

Very pretty shoe, but the heel is just too high for my wide feet, so I'm slipping down into toes and have 1/2" space at heel, cannot walk in them.

We just got our first snow here in Kansas and my granddaughter was freezing when she came over. Ordered these for her for Christmas, but there's no way we're waiting until then to give them to her. Such great quality and they were here before I knew it. It says that they're cold rated to -20 degrees, since the wind chill is two degrees, we're going to test that out right away.

I'm only 5'1" so wearing this boot was quite uncomfortable since it keep hitting the back of my knee! I wouldn't recommend buying these boots if you have short calves like I do. Also the way that they sewn the top part of the boot was crooked. It's only noticeable if someone else is with you when you're trying it on. I'm afraid that after wearing these boots for awhile they might give me feet problems so I'm returning these. Also I recommend order half a size larger so you can insert insole into these for a more comfortable wear if you do decide to buy them!

After tirelessly searching for the perfect Frye boots to fit my athletic calves, I found the Shirley Riding Plate. Love the rubber outer sole for traction. The shaft shape is just what I was looking for - straight like a tue riding boot. Gorgeous leather is durable but soft. The hammered copper color actually looks darker and less orangey in person. Will likely be buying in more colors... Can't beat Frye quality and Zappos service!

Like all the reviews before, these shoes are prettier in person. I got them in a 6.5 and had to buy the heel stickers, my feet did slip out a little. With the heel inserts they fit perfect. Not super comfy shoes but beauty is pain in my book. These are seriously princess shoes and make any dress beautiful.

It's Kaczynski Lauren up date our balance much easier -- are is all we had a guest sees -- says he's -- eight.
-- Angie would be a terrible name if they were put together.
Okay -- -- founder of talent and then.
Thank you for coming on and we're talking today about transforming the web into the largest ever talent sourcing database how do -- -- So the way to think about -- that is essentially -- talent search engine we help our hiring managers and recruiters okay find you know find the best talent that he had the White House offer and then.
It's essentially the way to think about us is a kind of like Google before.
Professionals trying to show -- if you're hiring manager your -- anyone -- know.
You know find -- me -- specific to a -- that you're looking higher for what we do is we scoop up all the professional information that people like you and myself and everyone else contrail -- on the Latin.
You can put that into a search engine to help help recruiters and hiring managers find the folks they need to fill that job slots and with sorts of companies -- work wet.
-- -- -- -- -- -- toll so I'm were really popular technical recruiting companies right now under a -- down a lot of the stuff that we're focused on -- -- for engineering specific sort of before folks like.
-- FaceBook or Groupon or Yahoo! or into -- these folks all use our software defined down.
To find really -- to -- engineers that they wouldn't necessarily be able to find them places like.
Monster or -- and simply because these folks really aren't looking for jobs necessarily.
Yet you obviously more tailored I had do you know how many weeks through that.
You're -- job candidates before you recommend them.
-- employers yes.
So the way to think about it again is telling Google what we end up doing as you know crawling most of the -- the web.
And then -- you know using algorithms in order to tease out the professionally relevant activity that people are engaged in.
On sites like.
-- interest or Twitter or into the ground or meet up or -- are what have you.
So you can imagine your previous -- was talking about the different places where people should be present on line for the business.
When people are on Twitter talking about you know.
Being -- a television producer or -- being a iPhone engineer or being a product manager.
That's sort of information to be picked up by these algorithms.
And put in north search engine and submit that information -- -- -- -- be present on that person's Linkedin profile.
But because they're engaging in that activity.
You know more implicitly on these other sites.
It makes for a richer kind of exhausted if you well had -- -- some more discoverable.

And don't you know we're always kind of -- came -- in -- what's the best way to find the right person for the job.
A lot of times the right person for the job isn't looking for a job so they're not going to be a -- they're not gonna be on career builder what have you been -- hill looking ahead of the right -- not looking.
Yeah it's one of those things were -- -- you could only find the right person and then so you go and let you go looking for that right person and maybe you go look coming thin but Lotta times they haven't put much information on their profile so.
If you're looking for very specific type -- role like a mobile product manager or an iPhone engineered and they haven't put that there and iPhone engineer on -- Lincoln provoked.
You're kind of you know that's a problem.
But if they're costly tweeting about it you know.
Being an iPhone and -- You can find them that way so that that was kind of the idea here that you could use this implicit information to find the right person for the -- you charge prayer services.
Yeah we do we I'm not not to any of the candidates or anything like that openness is obviously we don't much like -- were hit her pretty much like Linkedin is recruiting tools that we we charge the recruiters and hiring managers.
For access to this powerful.
This powerful search functionality.
Pete stay right there -- -- wanna talk about coming on line today with your company the first guy gets the chat.
We asked earlier is social media distracting and Chris.
As a truck driver.
Social media is not an option meanwhile Oregon one -- for a lightning get out -- Go ahead if all the roles I don't have a hard core -- -- I guess can expect Romney.
And you say you're very distracted we've -- -- -- track and Chris Christie running again.
Wife is subject matter of jobs always aimed at those of management college degree professionals is fox where there are people who are looking for any kind of work.
To enable and take care of their family as well yeah that's that is true.
The Census Bureau actually Chris just did a study saying that the average.
In the US fell to just about 67000 dollars -- is decline of 35% believe it or not between 2005.
And 2000 intent.
At the same time.
You're gonna if you have a college degree believe or not if you have a bachelor's degree.
He'll make at least three times more than some with just a high school diploma and if you have a professional or graduate degree make about double with a college degree makes so like.
In some ways you gotta say listen to your parents and you can't get a job about school in this educate yourself as much -- -- But Chris thank you we really do appreciate your your comments and that's something we will take note of -- back -- what's gone today.
With your company.
-- public wants is done right.
I'm actually we've been out for a little bit -- -- -- out today.
It it out really what we're just focused on it is.
You know engaging with as many of these these organizations that are having a hard time finding the -- they need.
In order to feel BZW's very tough to find that -- -- to fill roles.
As possible and you know -- really focus on taking this right now as we were mentioned earlier talent and it is very useful for hiring.
-- for engineering talent and kind of technical talent.
Were really looking forward taking that to.
Other disciplines whether that's mechanical engineering are -- petroleum engineering or even you know.
Television production professionals are what have you.
Really when it comes down to is our belief is that everyone's going to be online engaging professor relevant activity and we wanna do -- really amazing job.
Of helping you know the jobs find them.
That's and I -- I note -- that you reference to earlier today kind of specialized software.
-- center and San Francisco.
The budget address Chris -- comment do you Taylor any.
Anything towards people who don't have -- for various.
Yes I do way that I would think about that and it in the feedback is the Chris and also doing relevant to the person who is on -- before me.
Is it.
If if recruiters and hiring professionals are going to be using these search tools in our defined the folks that they're looking for.
And also when you apply for a dollar if they're going to be hopping on to tools in order to you know check you out.
The important thing is to be proactive in and creating a -- you know creating a professional presence on the web.

11:00am Saturday 30th June 2012
CITY of York Athletics Club ace Richard Buck faces an anxious weekend to see whether British selectors will hand him a London 2012 4x400-metre relay spot after his quest to claim the Olympic 'A' standard ended in disappointment in Helsinki last night.
Buck produced a battling performance in the 400m final at the European Championships but, after a slow start, he was forced to settle for fifth spot – agonisingly missing out on the bronze medal by a tenth of a second.
The Brit, who finished fifth at last weekend's British trials, needed to run 45.30 seconds to claim the third and final individual spot in the 400m at the Olympic Games.
But, after being drawn in lane eight in the final, Buck was off the pace in the first 200m and, despite a battling final 100m, he clocked 45.92 seconds.
The Czech Republic's Pavel Maslak took gold in 45.24 seconds, with Hungary's Marcell Deak-Nagy the winning silver and France's Yannick Fonsat the bronze.
"A tenth of a second over a quarter of a mile is tough, but this is a cruel sport," said Buck. "I executed my race plan well, I went out nice and rhythmic and wound it up round the curve and really worked in the home straight but it wasn't quite there like it has been in other races but I'm still happy.
"I'm really disappointed not to have got a medal. I knew that I could have done and I went out there to really fight for one and to be so close is disappointing.
"It was difficult in lane eight because I could not see what was inside me but I almost ran out of gas in the finishing straight, it was so close that I have to use this as a learning experience.
"But it's better to be disappointed here than at the Olympics in a month's time."
Buck will take part in the 4x400m relay today and tomorrow.

Thiamine (Vitamin B1)
Original Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/vitamin-b1/NS_patient-thiamin
Thiamine (also spelled "thiamin") is a water-soluble B-complex vitamin, previously known as vitamin B1 or aneurine. Thiamine was isolated and characterized in the 1920s and thus was one of the first organic compounds to be recognized as a vitamin.
Thiamine is involved in numerous body functions, including nervous system and muscle functioning; the flow of electrolytes in and out of nerve and muscle cells (through ion channels); multiple enzyme processes (via the coenzyme thiamine pyrophosphate); carbohydrate metabolism; and the production of hydrochloric acid (which is necessary for proper digestion). Because there is very little thiamine stored in the body, depletion can occur quickly, within 14 days.
Severe chronic thiamine deficiency (beriberi) can result in potentially serious complications involving the nervous system, brain, muscles, heart, and gastrointestinal system.
Dietary sources of thiamine include beef, brewer's yeast, legumes (beans, lentils), milk, nuts, oats, oranges, pork, rice, seeds, wheat, whole-grain cereals, and yeast. In industrialized countries, foods made with white rice or white flour are often fortified with thiamine, because most of the naturally occurring thiamine is lost during the refinement process.
Thiamine is used as part of a treatment for metabolic disorders (including subacute necrotizing encephalopathy, maple syrup urine disease, pyruvate carboxylase deficiency, and hyperalaninemia) and thiamine deficiency symptoms (including beriberi, Wernicke's encephalopathy, Korsakoff's psychosis, and Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome), and in alcoholic individuals.

Metabolic disorders (subacute necrotizing encephalopathy, maple syrup urine disease, pyruvate carboxylase deficiency, hyperalaninemia)Taking thiamine by mouth helps to temporarily correct some complications of metabolic disorders associated with genetic diseases, including subacute necrotizing encephalopathy (SNE, Leigh's disease), maple syrup urine disease (branched-chain aminoacidopathy), and lactic acidosis associated with pyruvate carboxylase deficiency and hyperalaninemia. Long-term management should be under strict medical supervision. | A |
Thiamin deficiency (beriberi, Wernicke's encephalopathy, Korsakoff's psychosis, Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome)Humans are dependent on dietary intake to fulfill their thiamine requirements. Because there is very little thiamine stored in the body, depletion can occur quickly, within 14 days. Severe chronic thiamine deficiency can result in potentially serious complications involving the nervous system, brain, muscles, heart, and gastrointestinal system. Patients with thiamine deficiency or related conditions should receive supplemental thiamine under medical supervision. | A |
AlcoholismPatients with chronic alcoholism or those experiencing alcohol withdrawal are at risk of thiamine deficiency and its associated complications and should be administered thiamine. | B |
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN)It has been suggested that thiamine should be added to total parenteral nutrition (TPN) formulations for patients who are unable to receive thiamine through other sources (such as an oral multivitamin) for more than seven days. The use of thiamine in parenteral nutrition has been mentioned in several reviews. | B |
Alzheimer's diseaseBecause thiamine deficiency can result in a form of dementia (Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome), its relationship to Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia has been investigated. Whether thiamine supplementation is of benefit in Alzheimer's disease remains controversial. Further evidence is necessary before a firm conclusion can be reached. | C |
Anemia (thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia syndrome)Thiamine-responsive megablastic anemia (TRMA) is a genetic disorder affecting thiamine transport in the body or the conversion of thiamine into its active form. DIDMOAD (Wolfram) syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive inherited disease that results in diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy, diabetes insipidus, sensorineural deafness, and occasionally thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia. Management, including thiamine supplementation, should be under strict medical supervision. | C |
Atherosclerosis (prevention in patients with acute hyperglycemia, impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), and diabetes mellitus)Patients with diabetes are at risk of developing hardened arteries (called atherosclerosis). This happens when cholesterol and other substances build up and clog the arteries. Thiamine has been studied as a way to help widen arteries that are too narrow. Regular intake of thiamine might help slow the progression of atherosclerosis. However, additional research is needed. | C |
Athletic performanceActive individuals who reduce intake of food might be at greater risk of vitamin deficiency, including thiamine deficiency. There is inconclusive scientific evidence for supplementation in this area. | C |
CancerThiamine deficiency has been observed in some cancer patients, possibly due to increased metabolic needs, medication use, or malnutrition. It is not clear if lowered levels of thiamine in such patients may actually be adaptive (beneficial). Currently, it remains unclear if thiamine supplementation plays a role in the management of any particular types of cancer. | C |
Cataract preventionPreliminary evidence suggests that high dietary thiamine intake may be associated with a decreased risk of cataracts. Further evidence is necessary before a firm conclusion can be reached. | C |
Cerebellar ataxiaPreliminary research suggests thiamine supplementation has benefit for acute cerebellar ataxia following febrile illness. Further research is needed. | C |
Coma/hypothermia of unknown originAdministration of thiamine is often recommended in patients with coma or hypothermia of unknown origin, due to the possible diagnosis of Wernicke's encephalopathy. | C |
Crohn's diseaseDecreased serum thiamine levels have been reported in patients with Crohn's disease. It is not clear if routine thiamine supplementation is beneficial in such patients generally. | C |
Diabetic complicationsThiamine may prevent diabetic complications, including complications of the nervous system, eyes, blood vessels, and kidneys. Other diabetic complications that may benefit from thiamine supplementation include increased urination, high levels of glucose in the urine, and high blood cholesterol levels. Additional research is needed in this field. | C |
DysmenorrheaBased on preliminary evidence, thiamine may be effective for dysmenorrhea. Further research is needed to confirm these results. | C |
EpilepsyPreliminary research suggests that thiamine may improve attention and motor function in patients with epilepsy. However, data are limited, and further research is needed. | C |
Heart failure (cardiomyopathy)Chronic severe thiamine deficiency can cause heart failure (wet beriberi), a condition that merits thiamine supplementation. It is not clear that thiamine supplementation is beneficial in patients with heart failure due to other causes. However, it is reasonable for patients with heart failure to take a daily multivitamin including thiamine, because some of these individuals may be thiamine deficient. Diuretics may lower thiamine levels. Since diuretics are commonly administered to patients with heart failure, patients taking diuretics are at an increased risk of thiamine deficiency. This area remains controversial, and further evidence is necessary before a firm conclusion can be reached. | C |
Leg cramps (during pregnancy)Vitamin B supplements have been used to treat leg cramps during pregnancy. However, additional studies are needed to determine if it is effective. | C |
Mitochondrial disordersMitochondrial disorders are genetic defects in mitochondrial energy production and can lead to various types of diseases. There is some evidence to suggest that thiamine may be used as part of a treatment regimen for these disorders. Well-designed research is needed before conclusions can be drawn. | C |
Pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency (PDH)There is preliminary evidence of clinical improvements in children with PDH following thiamine administration. Further evidence is necessary before a firm conclusion can be reached. | C |
Renal impairment (kidney dysfunction)Vitamin deficiency, including thiamine deficiency, is associated with chronic renal insufficiency. Multivitamin supplementation is often recommended. However, some researchers believe individualization may be necessary. Research is needed in this field. | C |
Rheumatic diseasesPreliminary evidence suggests that B vitamins might aid in pain reduction. However, clinical data are lacking for B vitamins and rheumatic diseases. Further research is needed. | C |
Subclinical thiamin deficiency in the elderlyWhile typically asymptomatic, the elderly have been found to have lower thiamine concentrations than younger people. There is limited evidence that thiamine supplementation may be beneficial in individuals with persistently low thiamine blood levels. Further research is necessary before a firm conclusion can be formed in this area. | C |
Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ)A combination of indomethacin and thiamine were found to be less effective than classical acupuncture for temporomandibular disorders. Further research is needed in this field. | C |
Fractures (hip)Preliminary evidence shows that supplemental thiamine is not beneficial for hip fractures. | D |
A Strong scientific evidence for this use
B Good scientific evidence for this use
C Unclear scientific evidence for this use
D Fair scientific evidence against this use (it may not work)
F Strong scientific evidence against this use (it likely does not work)

The below doses are based on scientific research, publications, traditional use, or expert opinion. Many herbs and supplements have not been thoroughly tested, and safety and effectiveness may not be proven. Brands may be made differently, with variable ingredients, even within the same brand. The below doses may not apply to all products. You should read product labels, and discuss doses with a qualified healthcare provider before starting therapy.
Adults (18 years and older)
The U.S. recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for adults aged 19 years and older is 1.2 milligrams daily for males and 1.1 milligrams daily for females, taken by mouth. The RDA for pregnant or breastfeeding women of any age is 1.4 milligrams daily, taken by mouth. As a dietary supplement in adults, 1-2 milligrams of thiamine has been used daily, by mouth.
For Alzheimer's disease, three milligrams of thiamine has been used daily by mouth in three divided doses for up to one year.
For dysmenorrhea, 100 milligrams of thiamine has been used daily by mouth for three months.
For epilepsy, 50 milligrams of thiamine has been used daily by mouth for six months.
Thiamine is used to treat thiamine deficiency, metabolic or genetic enzyme deficiency disorders, neuropathy, and Wernicke's encephalopathy (prevention and treatment) under medical supervision.
For alcohol withdrawal, 100 milligrams of intramuscular (injected into the muscle) or intravenous (injected into the vein) thiamine hydrochloride has been used before administration of dextrose solutions.
For alcoholic liver disease patients, 100 milligrams of parenteral (injected) thiamine has been used.
For coma or hypothermia of unknown origin, 100 milligrams of intramuscular or intravenous thiamine has been used at the same time as hypertonic dextrose.
For total parenteral nutrition-induced fulminant beriberi, 100 milligrams of rapid intravenous thiamine has been used, with transfer to an intensive care unit.
For Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, the following daily doses have been used: 5-200 milligrams of intramuscular thiamine (administered in five divided doses over two days in patients with Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome secondary to alcohol abuse); and at least 100 milligrams of intravenous or intramuscular thiamine.
Children (younger than 18 years)
The adequate intake (AI) for infants 0-6 months old is 0.2 milligrams, and for infants 7-12 months old, the AI is 0.3 milligrams. For children 1-3 years old, the U.S. recommended dietary allowance (RDA) is 0.5 milligrams; for children 4-8 years old, it is 0.6 milligrams; for children 9-13 years old, it is 0.9 milligrams; for males 14-18 years old, it is 1.2 milligrams; and for females 14-18 years old, it is one milligram, taken by mouth daily. The RDA for pregnant or breastfeeding women of any age is 1.4 milligrams daily, taken by mouth. Thiamine is used to treat thiamine deficiency or beriberi under medical supervision.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not strictly regulate herbs and supplements. There is no guarantee of strength, purity or safety of products, and effects may vary. You should always read product labels. If you have a medical condition, or are taking other drugs, herbs, or supplements, you should speak with a qualified healthcare provider before starting a new therapy. Consult a healthcare provider immediately if you experience side effects.
Rare hypersensitivity or allergic reactions have occurred with thiamine supplementation. A small number of life-threatening anaphylactic reactions have been observed with large parenteral (intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous) doses of thiamine, generally after multiple doses.
Skin irritation, burning, or itching may rarely occur at injection sites.
Contact dermatitis may occur with occupational exposure and may cause sensitization and lead to dermatitis-type reactions after subsequent oral or injected administrations.
Side Effects and Warnings
Thiamine is generally considered safe and relatively nontoxic, even at high doses. No clear tolerable upper level (UL) of intake has been established. Dermatitis or more serious hypersensitivity reactions occur rarely. Large doses may cause drowsiness or muscle relaxation.
Injections of thiamine may cause burning. Reactions can often be avoided by slow administration into larger veins.
Supplementary thiamine use in cancer patients should be under the care of a physician.
Use cautiously in patients with low blood pressure or in those taking blood pressure-lowering agents, as in an elderly population with subclinical thiamine deficiency, thiamine supplementation resulted in decreased systolic blood pressure.
Use cautiously in patients with a slow heart rate, as, in human research, thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) has been shown to decrease heart rate.
Use cautiously with vasodilators (blood vessel-widening agents) in patients with high blood sugar levels or diabetes, as thiamine has been shown to improve vasodilation in these patients.
Avoid use of thiamine at levels higher than those commonly found in available marketed products, unless under the advice of a healthcare practitioner.
Avoid in patients with known allergy or hypersensitivity to any constituents in thiamine supplements.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
Thiamine is classified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as Pregnancy Category C. Thiamine may be recommended by a healthcare practitioner in women who are vomiting excessively during pregnancy.
This patient information is based on a professional level monograph edited and peer-reviewed by contributors to the Natural Standard Research Collaboration (www.naturalstandard.com).

Posted October 2, 2012 by annie leal
We have some great news for animals today! Following a request from PETA, the District of Columbia Public Schools has voluntarily adopted a progressive dissection-choice policy. This means that students in Washington, D.C., can take a stand against chopping up dead animals at school and instead learn using modern computer software and other humane methods. How awesome is that?! Want even more good news? The nation's capital is not alone! Many districts around the country as well as 15 states already have similar policies. Check if your state is one of them!
You don't live in one of these states? No prob—just e-mail us at firstname.lastname@example.com. We'll help you get a dissection-choice policy at your school and send you all the free material that you'll need to get the rest of your classmates on board! Don't forget that you can print your own petition sheets to get started right away!
P.S. On Friday, we'll be launching an all-new, interactive site that's going to make it even easier to cut out dissection and help animals at your school, so be sure to check back! Who else is super excited for this?

I've been trying to get my hands on this for sometime now with no luck :cry:
Not a fan of it, sorry!
I really like this track, Posford opened his set with it at the last gig. Anyone know if it is available on an album??
'My god it's full of stars'
Yes its available on "annodalleb-daath" album.Havent heard it though
The happy chaos out of which enlightenment might come.
Great, thanks…..may track it down. I haven't heard anything else by them are they a metal band??
sort of very angry industrial. the album's got some other nice remixes on it, sort of trancey with a no-logo edge if that makes any sense. not overtly my thang but worth a sniff
— there is an area of the toilet that can be called unsanitary, beyond sanitary
Cheers. Not really into that sound either but nice to hear Posford remix a different genure.

After dumping intense rain and bringing strong winds to Haiti and Cuba on Saturday, Tropical Storm Isaac picked up steam -- and promised to pick up strength -- as it spun toward Florida.
The storm left at least two people dead in the impoverished Caribbean nation of Haiti, pounding camps where hundreds of thousands of people live in tents.
As the Haitian government and outside agencies continued to assess the damage, the focus surrounding Isaac increasingly turned toward Florida, much like the storm itself.
Isaac was roughly 65 miles northeast of Camaguey, Cuba, and 340 miles east-southeast of Key West by late Saturday, moving at about 17 mph, the National Hurricane Center said. The storm system is expected to gain strength and become a hurricane by early Monday as it moves past the Florida Keys and into the Gulf of Mexico.
After barreling north -- affecting Florida's western coast along the way -- the storm is expected to pack 100 mph sustained winds by the time it makes landfall sometime late Tuesday afternoon or early evening on the Florida Panhandle, likely near Panama City, according to forecasters.
That progression prompted Republican Party officials in Tampa to effectively push back Monday's scheduled start of the Republican National Convention one day, hoping the move will make it safer and easier for delegates to attend. Tropical storm conditions could first be felt there by late Sunday, and by late Monday afternoon and early evening, Isaac's eye should be west of the coastal city.
Florida's governor, Rick Scott, insisted Saturday that his state will be ready for whatever happens.
"This is a state that has dealt with hurricanes forever," he told reporters Saturday in Broward County. "We are a state that we know we have to get prepared for hurricanes."
As preparations continue, authorities in Haiti spent Saturday assessing Isaac's aftermath.
The country is still recovering from a devastating earthquake that struck more than two years ago, and its challenges are compounded by the fact it is led by a relatively new government with limited resources. All that said, the top U.N. humanitarian official in the nation praised the initial response efforts.
"So far, I think we're faring reasonably well in our response," Kevin Kennedy told CNN on Saturday afternoon, referring to the efforts led by the Haitian government and assisted by U.N. agencies and non-governmental organizations.
Haitian radio reported that the worst damage was in the country's southeast.
Heavy rain and strong winds persisting into the morning hours caused visible damage to trees and houses in the city of Jacmel, on Haiti's southern coast, and knocked out power. As many as 1,500 of the city's residents took refuge in a school serving as a shelter.
Jacmel Mayor Hugues Paul confirmed at least one death on the outskirts of his city, voicing fears that more deaths will be reported.
A 10-year-old girl also died when a wall fell on her house in Thomazeau, near Port-au-Prince, the country's civil protection agency said.
At the Mega IV camp, where 8,000 Haitians live in makeshift shelters, fallen trees and flooding damaged hundreds of tents. Almost no one had evacuated the camp before the storm, and authorities were searching the camp tent by tent looking for victims.
At another camp, Canaan, half the tents were blown away, according to an official statement on the radio.
Haiti's national electricity supplier at one point said that 30 out of the country's 32 electricity grids were down. Bernard Mevs Hospital was operating on generator power after losing electricity, just before midnight, said Scott Gillenwater of the Project Medishare, which provides services at the hospital.
The nation's main airport closed for a time, but had reopened by late Saturday afternoon, according to Rachel Brumbaugh, operations manager in Haiti for the Christian humanitarian organization World Vision.
In Port-au-Prince, people were evacuated to areas behind the presidential palace and also to a stadium.
The storm dumped up to a foot of rain around Hispaniola -- the island shared by Haiti and the Dominican Republic -- with up to 20 inches in some locales.
Kennedy pointed out the prospect of another humanitarian disaster would have been much worse right after the 2010 earthquake, when about 1.5 million people were living in about 1,500 makeshift camps. Today, he said that figure is closer to 400,000.
But Haiti may not be out of the woods yet, with the possibility of even more heavy rain causing a host of problems along the coast and in populated areas downhill from mountains.
"We could possibly get another 10 inches and, should that happen, we'd be very concerned about flooding in the low-lying areas and those places adjacent to the sea," Kennedy said.
Water levels along the Grey River in Port-au-Prince are already "at their breaking point," and more rain could cause them to overflow their banks and flood surrounding areas, Brumbaugh said.

Three years and 11 vacations ago, the white house and President Obama were warned that they were losing control of Obamacare and did not have the right personel in place to handle the October 2013 rollout.
In another staggering blow to the Obama administration and Obamacare, CBS News obtained a memo that reveals that David Cutler, who worked on the Obama 2008 campaign and was a valued outside health care consultant wrote this blunt memo to top White House economic adviser Larry Summers in May 2010: "I do not believe the relevant members of the administration understand the president's vision or have the capability to carry it out."
Cutler wrote no one was in charge who had any experience in complex business start-ups. He also worried basic regulations, technology and policy coordination would fail.
"You need to have people who have understanding of the political process, people who understand how to work within an administration and people who understand how to start and build a business, and unfortunately, they just didn't get all of those people together," Cutler said.
It had become obvious in early September that there were huge problems with the Afordable Care act when Obama began fielding questions about Obamacare rollout and seemed to have no answers for reporters.
Cutler said: "It is frustrating any time you really want to see something succeed because you believe it's good for people, and it doesn't get off on the right foot."
One month after its launch, the federal health care website remains hobbled. Dan Pfeiffer, senior White House adviser, said Sunday: "The website failures are absolutely inexcusable, and we own that."

My current events about the Catholic Church relate to our studies because of how we are learning that the Catholic Church is very religious. My articles talked about Bishops admitting their sins and how Yoga can affect the church. The Catholics do everything in the eye of God and inspect on things that are not usually considered Catholic. We learned that for a long time the Catholic Church has been this way. My articles show that the Catholic Church still carries on old traditions from over 300 years ago.
The impact on society that these two articles bring is that the Catholic Church really wants you to learn more about God. They want you to have faith in God. The catholic wants Society to know that they want full respect from you and that they will respect your faith. They want you to get the full effect of God and want to help you. That is why they band certain activities or sometimes need to apoligize for their sins. The Catholic Church wants you to love God and belive in him and get his full word.

In my book I think the main character in the Shakespear Stealer will eventually leave his foster parents. Widge will get tired of taking orders from his foster parents and will finally have enough courage to leave. He will run far, far, away from them and will find a new foster parent. Maybe even Shakespear himself. I think the connections from my book to the Middle Age time period is the person the story surrounds which is William Shakespear. He was a very popular play director during the Middle Age time period.
Middle Ages Politics
Article posted September 7, 2012 at 02:37 PM GMT • comment (3) • Reads 1763
My focus topic was politics in the Middle Ages. Politics in the Middle Ages includes kings and Queens Manors and Serfs. One of thr main focus points in the Middle Ages was Fuedalism. FUedalism is the process in which a king gives land to manors and the manors provide protection and loyalty to the kings. Then the Manors would give land to poor serfs and the serfs would give them protection and food. Politics in the Middle Ages was similar to the way AMerica operates today. In America we try to save money during huge wars, that is what the Middle Ages did. The Middle Ages was a very Dark time. There were struggles and a long boring time. People in the Middle Ages did not really pay attention to politics in the Middle Ages. They obeyed the Kings and Queens each and everyday.

I am excited about learning about the Mideval Times. I want to learn about the religion and whta were some of the great battles about. I like to learn about the old days of the world because i like to see how far the world has come over thousands of years.
I will learn these things by watching movies on the subject. I will read books on the crusades and other wars and battles that the Mideval Times consisted of. I will also look on websites any time I have any questions about the Medieval Times.

The Tuskegee Airmen was an inspiring story about African American pilots. The book taught me about the Airmen through a teacher and his class. The students ask questions that are usually never answered by everyday people. Tuskegee Airmen talks about the men and how they were they were mistreated and considered a disgrace to other people that weren't like them. The Tuskegee Airmen is a book that not only tells the story of the Tuskegee Airmen but in a way that both children and adults will understand.
John Comyn
Article posted February 16, 2012 at 11:24 PM GMT • comment • Reads 329
John Comyn was often called the Earl of Buchan. He was a member of Clan Comyn a group in the early 14th century. He was a chief opponent of Robert The Bruce a powerful Scottish leader. Robert and John were leaders in a 14th century civil war that both sides argued for independence. John Comyn had a cousin named John Comyn III who was killed by Bruce in Dumfries in 1306. John Comyn agreed to assist Bruce for the sake of the civil war between France and Scotland.
From about 1300 to 1304 the civil war of Scotland was also the war or fight for power for the Comyns. John Comyn and a few of his cousins decided that they were going to fight the other side of their family for power and over parts of Scotland. John did not just want to fight his cousins he wanted to fight the Native people that lived there. His cousins set up armies around the boarder of Scotland. His cousins placed him in Galloway where his cousins and parts of France attacked Scotland. After a year of fighting John Comyn was sent to Paris to prevent a peace treaty to end the war. A few years later Comyn died (1308) as a sergeant for 14th century Scotland.
John Comyn died from being murdered, since 1286 the threat of civil war between the houses of Bruce and Balliol had haunted and shaped Scottish politics. So Robert Bruce and his partners and associates killed Comyn and his Uncle because of their power in the civil war. This was a murder that had a huge turn in the Scottish civil war. Mostly because Comyn was one of the main leaders in then Scottish civil war and with his power over half of Scotland, Bruce was named leader of the civil war and now controlled the rest of the Comyn Clan. He brought torture on them and made them fight in the most dangerous battles then killed William Comyn. He killed William because he tried to runaway and form a Clan called the Comyn II but was found later on and was killed by Robert Bruce.
With my research on John Comyn I concluded that he was a very tough man. He liked to fight and solve his problems with violence. I also concluded that his family was not a typical loving family. With them it was all about power and whoever had the most power was the best one in the family. So without any second guesses I think that there was constant family in the Comyn family.

A real life situation was this summer in a basketball game. I was instructed by my coach to shoot a three at the 10 seconds mark. As I was looking at my coach on the bench. I wasn't paying attention to the defender. A defender came by and stole the ball from behind me. All I could do was watch as he was speeding down the court towards the basket. He made his layup and the game was over. We had lost he game. I felt devastated knowing that my coach gave me a responsibility to win a game and we lost. I was sad and didn't know how to apologize to my teammates I knew they were mad at me and I didn't even know how to forgive myself.
Should we expect professional athletes to be role models or should we judge them by their athletic abilities?
Article posted January 18, 2012 at 07:52 PM GMT • comment (1) • Reads 344
I think we should expect professional athletes to be role models. When a child sees a professional athlete acting inappropriate I think that the athlete should be punished. I think this because kids might see that behavior and think it is okay but it is really not good behavior. SO yes I think we should judge the professional athlete as being a role model and if they are good at the sport they play it makes all the better.
In what settings can prejudice sometimes be found?
Article posted January 11, 2012 at 07:51 PM GMT • comment (1) • Reads 353
Prejudice can be found at school and even in your own neighborhood. People can have qualities of prejudice and treat you differently and unfairly because of the smallest things. You might wear glasses, you might not have a lot of friends. But prejudice can be found anywhere and it's never going to go away. So there is no escaping it you can only face it and learn to deal with it.

The Ironhorse
Online Reservations
Cool venue in quaint little old town. Next to rails it's great for anyone who enjoys trains - 4 went by during dinner
Loved watching the trains go by as we enjoyed our delicious dinner!
Our party of four were there to celebrate a birthday. We had drinks at the bar while waiting for everyone. The staff were very friendly and the food was excellent, both the presentation, the taste and the quantities. The appetizer was a little slow coming out. The wine price seemed a little high. Overall experience was very good.
Easter brunch was tasty at Ironhorse! My husband and I often eat at Ironhorse for special occasions, but had never done brunch here. It was very tasty, the buffet was kept fresh and had delicious high quality dishes. The menu was not overly extensive, but very well done.
The Ironhorse is always a fun outing for a special occasion. We had two different steak dinners which were both excellent. Great care was taken in the kitchen to prepare the meal. The staff was very attentive and on top of things for service. My suggestions for the menu would be to carry a standard or signature beef option (filet, strip, sirloin) instead or in addition to the rotating entre. The menu is custom but I like a go-to standard steak every so often. The wine list is fun but it would be nice to have some the recent wino favorites (Caymus, Silver Oak, etc.) Better bread would be good thing also.
The entire experience was a delight! I was bringing my Dad their after a long train ride from New York. From the moment of placing my reservation through the delivery of 2 Ddelicious Meals to our Departure late at night everyone there helped make this a memorable meal/ Thank You
The srvice and food were great and we love the ambiance of the place.We will be back.
We enjoyed our dinner and experience at your restaurant and will be coming back/
I liked the convience of obtaining a reservation online. The Ironhorse has a great location in Ashland. Good parking off the street in the rear of the establishment. Perfect for anniverseries or date night. Try the specials, take your time and leave room for dessert. The portion sizes are generous and cooked to your specifications. Very good experience all around. My entire family had a good time.
We've been to the Ironhorse many times and love it! For this visit, we brought my brother, who was visiting from San Diego. He's very well-traveled and dines out A LOT!! He was SO impressed with the restaurant, esp. the extensive wine list! The Ironhorse is now on his list of Richmond-area favorites!
We are normally city diners if we want to try the next best thing. We live equidistant to the city and Ashland, so it's about a 15-20 minute drive for us to get to Ashland's historic town where Ironhorse is located. We used the Open Table app to get a reservation at 6:45, and arrived slightly after that. They took us to our table, which was located at the back part of the fine dining area. While it was not bustling when we arrived at that time, the scene quickly filled with couples and families. The train went by during dinner, which was so fun to see and the food was wonderful. I had the marinated skirt steak, an iceberg salad (house-made dressing was fantastic) and pork morsels fried in duck fat - so indulgent and good. We'll be back!
Good food and ambience is possible when traveling on I 95. A short diversion to the Ironhorse and you will find both.
Great place to get a wonderful meal while watching the trains roll through. Been going there for years and the food is consistently delicious and the staff is friendly and attentive. It's a true "Gem" in Hanover!
Loved sitting outside and watching the trains roll through town. Our guests really enjoyed the evening. We go to the Ironhorse three to four times a year. The food is always changing and always good. The bar is very nice too.
We made reservations for Mother's Day Brunch after stopping by and having a great afternoon bite several months before. I like the restaurant being next to the railroad tracks, the outside tables and overall ambience. The menu food is very good but I was overall disappointed with the brunch selection for what they charged. On the buffet was sausage/bacon, scrambled eggs, cheesy grits, greens and green beans, waffles and chipped beef (I think) already spooned on toast. A carving table with beef (very good) and ham. Oysters on the half shell and spiced, chilled shrimp. A fruit table with melon and cantaloupes. All for $30.00. However, by 1230 they had run out of the soup, deserts and there was no bread/rolls offered.
Was pleasantly surprised when our group of 4 was able to secure a last-minute reservation for Saturday night. The dinner menu was concise, but all dishes were excellent! I ordered the sesame chicken which was lightly pan-seared, giving the skin a nice taste. My husband had the steak - cooked to his liking, sliced, and served with mashed potatoes. Our friends ordered the pork and salmon respectfully. Each plate was presented beautifully, with a nice size serving for the price. One down side - the wine list appeared to be by the bottle, leaving us unsure of by-the-glass prices. In retrospect, we should've ordered a bottle for the table. When we return, we'll try lunch for a different menu and vibe.
I've eaten here many times over the past 8 - 10 years and I've only had one meal in all that time that wasn't at least very good, and most were excellent. On this visit I had the Rainbow Trout and it was very good. The service was also very good. The only disappointment was the limited wine selection. There is an excellent wine/beer store at the end of the block. I would think they could work out a "Featured Wine" idea with the wine/beer store that would benefit both establishments. Other than that the Amtrak came by right on time and also a freight train. So we had a very good meal and some visual entertainment.
Great fish specials and local produce! Feta cheese outstanding!
What a gem of a restaurant we discovered in Ashland! We frequently travel the I95 corridor & make stops along the way. We will definitely return to the Ironhorse! The food was delicious and well prepared. We had the flat iron steak and the brined pork loin as main courses; both were excellent. The fried green tomato appetizer is worth a drive back to Virginia (we live in NJ). Our waiter was charming and efficient.
Always a reliable choice against limited competition in town. Highlights - decent wine list with a nice-to-have clearance list for bargains, eclectic menu, correctly cooked food, interesting view, and good wait staff. Opportunities - they need menu anchors/speciailities like a steak filet, signature side & dessert. They would benefit by having a core menu for regulars and those who could become regulars (besides the bar side). Also, the puree soup is not appealing and has lost its novelty with me after the first try.
The Town of Ashland bills itself as "The Center of the Universe." The staff at Ironhorse try their best to make you feel special and that YOU are the center of their universe. We had lunch on an extremely hot day - tomato gazpacho, salads and sandwiches for two of us, and shrimp & grits for the 3rd. All were very good and the service was outstanding - attentive, personable. This is one of my local favorites and never disappoints.
If you like a bit of history this is a great place. Situated in historic Ashland right near the train station you can sit outside and have Amtrak and CSX rumble by 20 yards from your table. If that is too noisy for you (I liked if), inside is much quieter, but you can still enjoy the sense of watching the last century roll by. The food was good, but not memorable. The wait staff was very nice. I would and will go again.
Of a party of 5, there were two repeaters and three new. As expected, the seating was comfortable, food was great WITH an attentive waiter. I overheard one person say " I like this place" at least three times. That is exactly why there will be 5 repeaters NEXT time. Come as you are and be comfortable !
We go to Ironhorse a couple of times a month. The food is always creative and excellently prepared. Service is outstanding - friendly and helpful. Wine list is good but could be expanded. We always feel welcome here.
Took a chance since I had never been there before. Brought a good friend and my wife for an evening meal and had a great time. Service was outstanding, food was great, and the atmosphere was convivial. A little loud for my taste (it was Saturday night) but have experienced a lot worse. Great experience overall.
Doesn't matter what it is or how crazy it sounds, these guys are the masters of exotic flavor pairings.
We chose the Ironhorse to celebrate the dedication of one of our Employees because we knew it would offer that Special Night
Staff very accommodating before, during and after meal. Food presented well and tasted great. Did not hurry us through the meal.
This was our third time eating at his restaurant. We've recently purchased a home in the area and are trying out different restaurants in the area. This time, the noise inside (primarily from the stacking and handling of dishes) was almost overwhelming in the dining room that we asked to be seated outside. The table was fine, but the heavy smoking from the table next to us took away from the ambiance. As for the food, we did enjoy the items we finally got. My first choice, an evening special, ran out right before my order was placed. It was a bit surprising that they would run out so soon on a Saturday night, especially when our reservation was at 7 PM. However, the stuffed pork loin was quite tasty, although a bit overdone.
If you love trains this is the place for you. If you are into an evening outing for a great dinner this is the place for you too. What's not to love about the Ironhorse Retaurant. It combines the ambience and charm of great dining with the lore of trains which frequently pass by directly in front of the the restaurant --- and is an awesome feauture. The trout stuffed with crab was out of this workd delicious and the special steak dinner on the menu was equally as enjoyable. The sides and other dressings on our plate just made this a dining experience to remember. Can't wait to go back. Thhs restaurant has become a favorite and is only a very short drive to Richmond.
Loved eating a romantic birthday dinner here! Right next to the train tracks, it was fun to see the trains cruise by while we dined. The food was excellent, as was the service! I would definitely recommend this restaurant!
We made reservations at the Iron Horse as it looked to be a nice restaurant within easy walking distance of Randolph Macon College. The menu is a bit pricy but we ordered several appetizers and just one main dish and had a wonderful meal. The vegetarian options were a bit limited but the squash entree was amazing! The pumpkin soup was a bit of a disappointment as it needed salt or just more flavor. The wine list was expansive. The Argentinian Malbec I ordered was reasonably price and lovely. While waiting for our food we sampled the fresh bread and a cheese appetizer, which were both very tasty.
We had a wonderful evening at Ironhorse. It was a busy night, but we never felt as if our meal was taking too long. The service, from Will, was outstanding. Highly recommend Ironhorse.
Consistently very good - food well-prepared, service friendly and helpful, ambience inviting
We've been to Ironhorse many times and it never disappoints. Reasonably priced, very good food, and it's fun to watch the trains wiz by.
The Iron Horse Restaurant in Ashland, VA brings back childhood memories of a quaint, picturesque, friendly railroad town. I had a delicious lunch with a friend. The potato and garlic soup was divine. The first words from our waiter was 'welcome back.' Because I had made a reservation on Open Table, he knew that I had previously been to the restaurant. After our wonderful lunch, we went across the tracks to some shops (traffic stops for you when you are ready to cross the street). A delightful day!
Great place for a relaxed and delectable dining experience. Fried oysters were a little bland, but the Rainbow Trout, was really bursting with flavor. I would love to have the recipe for the sweet and sour kale that accompanied the entree. It was scrumptious! There's no kids menu, but the bar menu offered our 10 year old a choice of barbecued wings and fries, so she was happy. They really don't do anything special for birthdays, either. Overall, the food and our server were great. The server was very attentive and pleasant. We will definitely be back when the weather is warmer to enjoy the trains going by, while we dine outdoors.
We try to have our reunion every Month and The Ironhorse is a wonderful choice
If a small but delicious entrée menu is the thing for you then the Iron Horse is the place to be. The food was delicious, service was excellent and the atmosphere was wonderful. Will go again for sure !!
Since we were a group of four 'old friends', it was the perfect place for us to get together and visit...Our lunch was delicious and the wines that were referred by our server Jack, were great. We all said that we will return to the Ironhorse because it is a perfect meeting place for us...I don't know why we haven't been there before now....two of my group couldn't get over the trains coming by and just loved them! We will definitely return! Our server Jack was excellent for four 'old' ladies!!!
