title: Joda-Time DateTimeFormatter: get the correct output
body: <p>I need to convert a <a href="http://www.joda.org/joda-time/" rel="nofollow">Joda-Time</a> <a href="http://www.joda.org/joda-time/apidocs/org/joda/time/DateTime.html" rel="nofollow">DateTime</a> into a String, in the following format:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Sat, 1 Jan 2011 00:00:00</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I'm using this code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>DateTimeFormatter f = DateTimeFormat.forPattern("E, d MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss");
  f.withLocale(Locale.US);
  System.out.println(DateTime.now().toString(f));
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My output is however:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>wo, 20 jun. 2012 00:03:31</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>So the problems are:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>The output is in Dutch instead of English ('wo' for 'wed')</li>
  <li>The month has a period</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>How can I do this correctly?</p>
