1.
touch -t 200705100000 00start
touch -t 200705160000 00end
find . -newer 00start \! -newer 00end

2.
start=(# days between 5-10 and today)
end=(# days between 5-16 and today)
find . -mtime -$start -mtime +$end

3.
ls -l | egrep -e 'May 1(0-5)  2007'

Those ought to work but they're off the top of my head.
