How can I change the time settings?

How can I change the time settings? It’s only 11:42am where I am, but WordPress thinks it’s 4:42pm. This affects the timing of my posts. For example, if I post tonight, it will show that I posted it tomorrow.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
You can reset your date and timezone on your blog to reflect the timezone you actually live in. The default timezone is UTC time. You can reset your timezone here > Settings > General
Select the closest city to you in the same timezone you live in in the drop-down menu you see there and then click “save changes”. -
Thank you! One more quick question: because the time settings were off when I began my blog (two days ago…) the date of the first post is off. Is there any way to go back and change the posted time of an earlier post?

I know you are not scheduling a post but I want you to look at the images here so you know here the edit link is to change the datestamp and timestamp. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/schedule-a-post/
Then to edit the Post go to > Dashboard > Posts > All Posts and hover over the post title then click “edit”.
