Cassandra-Cli reading TimeUUID as a date string

Cassandra-Cli reading TimeUUID as a date string

I am using composite columns in cassandra, the column key is of the form
When I am reading using cassandra-cli commands get cf_name[row_id], the
data displayed is of the form
str:9f44c000-09f4-11e3-90b8-e0a485d07184
What can I do to read this in human readable format, eg. str:2013-08-21 ?
The current display format makes it difficult to read and interpret
things.
Thanks!
