Customize date appearance

Question

I have setup my home page to display my most 10 recent blog
posts, with
each post displaying its title and date.
The only problem is that the date appears as:
Tue, 18 Jul 2006 04:38:07 +0000
I would prefer the date to appear as:
July 18, 2006
or
6.18.06
Does anyone know how to make this work?

Last, but not least, my XSL fragment is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?><!--
DWXMLSource="
http://www.burnettcom.com/blog/?feed=rss2"
-->
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [
<!ENTITY nbsp "&#160;">
<!ENTITY copy "&#169;">
<!ENTITY reg "&#174;">
<!ENTITY trade "&#8482;">
<!ENTITY mdash "&#8212;">
<!ENTITY ldquo "&#8220;">
<!ENTITY rdquo "&#8221;">
<!ENTITY pound "&#163;">
<!ENTITY yen "&#165;">
<!ENTITY euro "&#8364;">
]>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
