Правильно показывать дату легче так:

ActiveSupport::CoreExtensions::Time::Conversions::DATE_FORMATS.merge!(
:client_readable => "%A %B %d at %H:%M", # => Friday April 25 at 11:10
:client_reports => "%d/%m/%Y at %H:%M"   # => 25/04/2008 at 11:10
)

Last updated on %= @post.updated_at.to_s(:client_readable) %
# => "Last updated on Friday April 25 at 11:20"
