An invention is disclosed for processes, apparatuses, devices, articles, structures, supports and systems for setting of floral items. In particular, embodiments of the present invention provide improved processes, methods, apparatuses, devices, articles, structures, supports, systems, and means for coupling one or more floral items or elements with or via one or more holders, bases, containers, receptacles, or artifacts, among other benefits and advantages. For instance, an embodiment may comprise a three-dimensional shape, one or more ridges, and another shape. The shape may comprise an empty space, which is adjacent to one or more surfaces associated with the shape. The other shape may comprise a cross section, where the one or more ridges are on the one or more surfaces, at least a portion of the empty space is adjacent to the one or more ridges, and at least a portion of the other shape is in contact with at least a portion of the one or more ridges.
An invention is disclosed for apparatuses, articles, structures, and supports for faux or artificial floral arrangements. Embodiments of such an apparatus, article, structure and support would provide, among other benefits and advantages, a more reliable, adaptable and extensible support for elaborate and extensive arrangements of faux floral artifacts over an extended area in a three-dimensional manner. In addition, faux floral products that incorporate or are otherwise equipped with the invention would become more environmental friendly and cost effective, and easier to manufacture and transport than the current approaches in the art aimed for the same goals or benefits.
An invention is disclosed for systems, methods, processes, and products of providing computing and online services. An embodiment of such a system, method, process, or product, among other things, may provide a more reliable, accurate, or otherwise effective way of determining and presenting relevant information to users, consumers, and the like.

An invention is disclosed for systems, methods, processes, and products, including but not limited to, one that provides for user communication and interaction with as well as access to resources available on or via a computing device. An embodiment of the invention includes providing a digital resource gathering and dissemination system, method, or process that can accommodate digital resources of interest for heterogeneous groups and communities of online users for the same topic, demographic, or some other categories as provided by a particular classification scheme. Such a system, method, or process also provides a more reliable or otherwise representative selection of digital resources of interest to the population as a whole.
Privacy and restricted access are provided for functions, applications, and services on a computing device. An area accessible to a user interface is provided. A request from a user is accepted, the request for associating with the area with one or more available functions. The one or more functions are then associated with the area, and are made invisible. Another request from the user is accepted, the other request for gaining access to the area. Authentication against the user is requested. Access to the one or more functions is granted if the authentication is successful. According to another embodiment, an authorized user may send and receive messages via another device that belongs to another user based on identification of the user by the other user.
