Michael Jackson’s body will be moved by motorcade to his sprawling Neverland Ranch in Santa Barbara County on Thursday for a sort of lying-in-state period where friends, family and fans can pay their respects until funeral plans are finalized, media reports said Tuesday.
Visitors will be allowed to see the body on Friday and a private memorial service for family only will be held Sunday, the reports said, citing unnamed law enforcement sources preparing to handle traffic tie-ups from a 30-car motorcade.

AP: Jackson finished 3-D music video before death
Two weeks before he died, Michael Jackson wrapped up work on an elaborate production dubbed the “Dome Project” that could be the final finished video piece overseen by the King of Pop, The Associated Press has learned.
Jackson was apparently preparing to dazzle concert audiences in London with a high-tech show in which 3-D images — some inspired by his Thriller era — would flash behind him as he performed on stage.
“It was a groundbreaking effort,” said Vince Pace, whose company provided cameras for the shoot, a 3-D system he created with filmmaker James Cameron.
