In another sign of a turn toward normalcy, amusement rides will start spinning this weekend at some parks and piers along the Sandy-battered New Jersey shore even as work continues to repair damage to buildings, boardwalks and other attractions.

The Keansburg Amusement Park, which the storm left under up to six feet of water, opens Saturday even though not all rides will be ready to operate and its popular Wildcat roller coaster is gone.
