Happy New Year

Reflecting on the year, I realize that each of us is alloted the same amount of time. The challenge for me in 2011 is how to spend my time more wisely. And decluttering physically and mentally is the first step.

5 January update: Good piece by Ralph Nader on taking back time.

Defining the Early, Mid, and Late Segments of a Decade

Early: Years ending in 0 through 4

Mid: Years ending in 5 and 6

Late: Years ending in 7 through 9
---------
How would I define the early, mid and late segments of a century or even a millennium?

Century:
Early: years ending in 0 and/or 1 through 49 (so, early Nineteenth Century: 1800/1801 through 1849)
Mid: 50 through 69
Late: 70 through 99

Millennium:
Early: years 0 and/or 1 through 499
Mid: years 500 through 699
Late: 700 through 999
-------
In any case, we are ensconced in the late aughts. More later.
