two questions about opal style, date format and top bar Options

[tgic24]

Alright, I'm using Opal on greatest journal (found the code from some lovely, generous person), and I'm just wondering, is there anyway to change the date format so that it says the day also? So it would show up: Thursday, July 14, 2005? (I really don't care how the month and year look, I just want the day of the week there also.)

Also, I'd love to get rid of the top bar that has the "viewing 0-20" and "next" "previous" links. I don't mind it on the bottom, but it clutters up the top of my page.
Nevermind, found the code for this one! Still looking for the date fix though.


I'm new here and I apologize if the answer is already here somewhere, I poked around but couldn't find anything.

Thanks!
