Is there a postgres equivalent of Oracle's next_day() function?  We have a web-based report that lists an employee's hours from Monday (of the current week) through the following Sunday (or sometimes the same period for the previous week); the beginning/end dates are retrieved (in Oracle) using the next_day function, ala:
        
        SELECT TO_CHAR ( ( NEXT_DAY ( SYSDATE, 'MONDAY' ) - 7 ), 'MM/DD/YY' ) AS THEMONDAY FROM DUAL

What would be the simplest way to do this query in PostgreSQL?
