Disney coming to Shanghai China
In a deal that would see a park open in 2014, Disney would have it’s fourth park outside of the US and it’s second in China. Disney would own 43% of the park and the govenment of Shanghai would own the remainder through a holding company. Nothing has been announced by either party at this point.
The first phase would include a theme park, a hotel and a shopping center.

New Life for Six Flags New Orleans
It is being reported that Souther Star Amusement is in negotiations to take over the lease to the Six Flags New Orleans property. They have some interesting plans including over 60 rides, a water park and a sulf sufficient levee system built around the property. Their website is down at the moment due to hurricane Gustav, but should be back soon. I hope this is true since the residents could use some good news for once.
