How do I parse the date string below into a Date object?

String target = "Thu Sep 28 20:29:30 JST 2000";
DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("E MM dd kk:mm:ss z yyyy");
Date result =  df.parse(target);  

Throws exception...

java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "Thu Sep 28 20:29:30 JST 2000"
