title: Linux server showing UTC instead of EST, local showing EST
body: <p>I am having trouble figuring out why the timezone for the code below keeps showing UTC instead of EST.  On my local computer it show EST, even if I am in MST time but on the actual server it keeps showing UTC.  Any clue?</p>
  
  <pre><code>Mon Nov 9 2015 1:58:49 PM UTC
  
  
  @JsonIgnore
      public String getDateCreatedFormatted() {
          Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
          calendar.setTime(getDateCreated());
          calendar.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("EST"));
  
          SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE MMM d yyyy h:mm:ss a z");      
  
          return format.format(calendar.getTime());
      }
  </code></pre>
