Identifying Day of Week???

Hello.  Does anyone know if it is possible to identify the day of the week for a particular date via Apex?  I thought this would be pretty simple given the various date methods available, but I am not able to find anything.

 

I am familiar with the various date methods - and I know I can return the month (such as "January" etc).  However, I am trying to return the day of the week - such as "Tuesday", "Thursday" etc.

 

Any thoughts?  Thanks in advance.  Hopefully I am just missing something pretty simple.
