possible bug in setting the timezone |

I am not sure if this is a bug or my misunderstanding of how
to use the date command, but my machine is stuck in the the CST
time zone (I am in the EST time zone). I have listed a few of
the numerous attempts that have failed. Can you tell me the
correct way to set the time zone?
Thanks.
