Answer 1

This problem was already solved on StackOverflow here: Java string to date conversion
(that is converting date string to java date)

Here is for your example:

String inDate="Wed, 29 june 2011 07:13:33";
    Date date;
    try {
        date = new SimpleDateFormat("E, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss", Locale.ENGLISH).parse(inDate);
        System.out.println(date); //Wed Jun 29 07:13:33 CEST 2011
    } catch (ParseException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

Printing out date itself should be the least of your problems
