long end=Timestamp.valueOf("2014-12-31 00:00:00").getTime();
long diff=end-begin+1;
Timestamp rand=new Timestamp(begin+(long)(Math.random()*diff));
  
int month=rand.getMonth()+1,day=rand.getDate(),year=rand.getYear()+1900;
  
String[] months={"Janunary","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December"};
String suffix="th";
if(day==2)suffix="nd";
else if(day==3)suffix="rd";
else if(day==1)suffix="st";
  
System.out.println("Random Date is: "+month+"/"+day+"/"+year);
System.out.println("Formatted Date is: "+months[month-1]+" "+day+""+suffix+" ,"+year);

long diff=end-begin+1;
Timestamp rand=new Timestamp(begin+(long)(Math.random()*diff));

int month=rand.getMonth()+1,day=rand.getDate(),year=rand.getYear()+1900;

String[] months={"Janunary","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December"};
String suffix="th";

System.out.println("Random Date is: "+month+"/"+day+"/"+year);
System.out.println("Formatted Date is: "+months[month-1]+" "+day+""+suffix+" ,"+year);
}catch(Exception e){
//some pice of infromation

}
