CINCINNATI Cincinnati city officials have pledged to help a crime-victim advocate produce decks of playing cards featuring cold-case homicides.

Hope Dudley says the aim is to get the cards each one featuring the victim of an unsolved murder into the hands of prison inmates and others who might have information.

The Cincinnati Enquirer (http://cin.ci/1s4Kio7 ) reports that the 63-year-old Dudley showed off the cards to members of the city council's law committee on Monday. Members pledged to promote the project and possibly use police forfeiture funds to help put more decks on the street.

In all, 6,000 decks have already been distributed in Ohio prisons.

Similar decks of cards also are being distributed in prisons in other states. Authorities say any publicity about unsolved slayings can help.

Classic VHS tape logos inspire artists at 5BORO NYC to design skateboard decks worthy of our retro memories.

VHS tape logos make for great skate decks. 5BORO NYC

Long before DVDs, Blu-ray and digital downloads, we had to record and watch our favorite movies and TV programs on VHS tapes.

New York skate shop 5BORO NYC pays tribute to our media past with a series of skateboard decks inspired by VHS tape logos and box label designs from companies such as Sony, Memorex, TDK and Fujifilm.

This makes sense considering most of us first watched amateur and professionally made skateboard-trick videos starring famous skaters like the Z-Boys and a much younger Tony Hawk on old VHS tapes.

There are eight different designs in all from artists Willy Akers, Rafael Gomes, Joe Tookmanian, Jimmy McDonald, Guillaume Dulout, Danny Falla, Dan Pensyl and Akira Ishizawa. The decks range in price from $49 to $50 (plus shipping and handling).

The Bottom Line Other Business Features Local Stories from ThisWeek More Articles By Steve Wartenberg The Columbus Dispatch Monday September 15, 2014 1:51 PM

Opening a section of blackjack tables at one of Ohios four casinos is a long, labor-intensive process, as dealers spread out and carefully inspect all 312 cards in the six-deck stacks they often use.

It can take 30 minutes to get the first table going and up to 90 minutes to get all six tables going, said Tosha Tousant, Horseshoe Clevelands director of table games.

This will change this year, as the Ohio Casino Control Commission has approved the use of preshuffled stacks of multiple decks of cards at the states casinos for use at blackjack and mini baccarat tables.

Time is money at casinos, and saving minutes means more games played and more revenue for the casinos.

And also better customer service, said Himbert Sinopoli, vice president and general manager of Hollywood Casino Columbus.

Preshuffled cards are an industry standard, he said, adding Hollywood Casino uses about 20,000 decks a month for all its card games.

The total is 16,000 decks a month at Horseshoe Cleveland, Tousant said.

Despite their use worldwide, the executive director of the states casino commission was skeptical when the Ohio casino executives requested permission to use preshuffled decks of cards.

Then our staff made two inspection trips (to the United States Playing Card Co. in Erlanger, Ky.), said Matthew Schuler.
