Since it's erev shabat, I want to mention I have a book that translates part of this mishnah from "Ethics of the Fathers" as "at seventy: a hoary head". The minshah describes stages and the progress of life in simple terms. I think the link above at torah.org does it justice. I couldn't find any links to websites I liked that translated השיבה (or השיבה if your browser isn't doing UTF-8) as "the hoary head", though.
