no Neverland public and private viewing

Today's news headline, Official Statement from Jackson Family:
Contrary to previous news reports, the Jackson family is officially stating that there will be no public or private viewing at Neverland. Plans are underway regarding a public memorial for Michael Jackson, and we will announce those plans shortly.

The late Michael Jackson's last will is also made public. The will was made in July 2002. Some interesting parts from the will:

Except as otherwise provided in this Will or in the Trust referred to in Article III hereof, I have intentionally omitted to provide for my heirs. I have intentionally omitted to provide for my former wife, DEBORAH JEAN ROWE JACKSON.

If any of my children are minors at the time of my death, I nominate my mother, KATHERINE JACKSON as guardian of the persons and estates of such minor children. If KATHERINE JACKSON fails to survive me, or is unable or unwilling to act as guardian, I nominate DIANA ROSS as guardian of the persons and estates of such minor children.

Channel Seven will air a special Michael Jackson TV concert, the highest rating TV concert in history, and Michael Jackson's last - “Michael Jackson - The Last Time” on Monday 6th July at 7.30pm. From the footage it seems to be the Michael Jackson: 30th Anniversary Celebration originally aired on 19 November 2001. I still have a tape recording of it (and later I converted it to DVD). (to Don: Australia is not as advanced as Boston, we did not have digital TV back then, nor did Antony have the ability to record digital TV.)
