	The third millennium starts on January 1 of the year 2001 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Likewise, there is a "first year before the chosen origin", a "second year before the chosen origin", etc. This terminology is not a proposed definition, but a consequence of the meaning of the words "first", "second", etc. in the English language, or any other natural language for that matter.
		Likewise there is a notion of the first decade after the chosen origin, the first century, and the first millennium.
		Likewise the first millennium ends at the end of the 1000th year, and the second millennium at the end of the 2000th year after the chosen origin.

	Board's Decision to Approve the First Millennium Challenge Compact With Madagascar
		Throughout this process, starting from when Madagascar first submitted its proposal to us in October up until Board approval today, we have engaged and worked cooperatively with the Malagasy as they refine their proposal and set their own development priorities and determine measurable objectives to improve the standard of living for the rural poor.
		First, the fact that this is country ownership, the country determining their priorities, they themselves have a stake in the outcome.
		The answer is the Millennium Challenge was set up specifically to promote poverty reduction and growth and to encourage countries to adopt good policies that promote poverty reduction and promote growth.

	The Signing of the First Millennium Challenge Compact
		The Millennium Challenge Account is a common-sense approach to development assistance that recognizes sound policies and good governance are critical to poverty reduction and economic growth in developing countries.
		So this is the first opportunity for Madagascar actually to come together with their national framework for land tenure and propose to MCC on interventions that will really strengthen the national policy framework for land tenure as well as pilot some of the interventions in five targeted zones of the country.
		In Madagascar, first and foremost, and I know the President said it was an objective first to qualify, to be eligible for the MCC and then wanting to be first and leadership makes a difference.

	Janurary 1, 2001 is the first day of the new millennium, NOT January 1, 2000.
		The begining of the first decade, century and millennium was on January 1 in the year 1.
		Common sense might suggest that the year 2000 is the dawning of the third millennium, but it is in fact the waning of the second.
		The first millennium began in C.E. There is no year zero in our calendar: the sequence of years passes directly from 1 B.C.E. to C.E. Adding a thousand years to the year 1 equals the year 1001, marking the start of the second millennium.

	Millennium -- from Eric Weisstein's World of Astronomy
		Since there was no year 0, the years 1-1000 AD correspond to the first millennium, 1001-2000 to the second, etc. The third millennium therefore began on January 1, 2001.
		However, rather than wasting time arguing about whether 2000 or 2001 is the start of the "new" millennium, we can simply note that the year 2000 corresponds to an odometer-like "rolling over" of the digits of the year, a very rare event which is clearly a calendrically significant!
		Because 2000, 4000, 6000, etc. are leap years and 1000, 3000, 5000, etc. are not, the number of leap days in each millennium alternates between 242 and 243, with the first, third, etc. millennia (i.e., 1-1000, 2001-3000, etc.) having 242 leap days, and the second, fourth, etc. (i.e., 1001-2000, 3001-4000, etc.) having 243 leap days.

		Millennium was easily one of the best T.V shows of the 90's but due to poor writing and lack of viewers, it faded into oblivion after the third season.
		Millennium follows a crime scene investigator who is gifted(or cursed) with ESP. By simply touching an object or being in a room involved in the crime, he can see through the murders eyes, in such away it's as if he "becomes" the killer for a short period of time.
		Millennium is vivid, morbid, very very raw and not for the squeamish but it is brilliant TV, and that should be reason enough to give it a try.

		At first sight it possibly looks as if the logic of that reaction leaves little to be desired, for a millennium is by definition a period of one thousand years.
		In the first century the Jewish authorities, though ignorant of the date of the spring equinox, were able, by plying that competence with due care, not only to prevent that on average the Jewish calendar year should become too short or too long but also that Passover should be celebrated too early, i.e.
		From the first century to about the year 360 the beginning of the new month and of the new year of the Jewish calendar was determined in principle in the same way as in the first century.

		The word does not mandate that such a period must either begin or end on the first or last day of a year whose number is evenly divisible by 1000.
		The arguments over whether the year 2000 or 2001 is the actual beginning of "the millennium" derives from an inaccuracy in the enumeration used by our calendar.
		So, in purely logical terms, the first millennium should have begun in the year 1 and ended in the year 1000.

		That the governments of the world finally united behind the goal of eradicating extreme poverty and hunger -- and that they have not merely endorsed this goal in a vague and general way, but committed to a concrete plan with a very specific intermediate target -- is surely cause for celebration.
		The celebrated first MDG (to cut world poverty in half by 2015) actually amounts to a dramatic cut-back in the poverty reduction the same governments had promised earlier (e.g., in the 1996 Rome Declaration on World Food Security).
		The first MDG and its public celebration among the affluent hides the largest (though not the gravest) crime against humanity ever committed.
