Secret Daughter of Clark Gable and Loretta Young, Judy Lewis, Dies at 76 Published December 01, 2011

NORRISTOWN, Pa. – A memorial will be held Saturday for Judy Lewis, the daughter of Clark Gable and Loretta Young, who died at the age of 76.
Lewis passed away on Nov. 25 at a retirement community in Gladwyne, Pa., eight miles (13km) south of Montgomery County seat Norristown, after a battle with cancer, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported Wednesday.
The actress, writer and psychotherapist spent the first 19 months of her life hidden away, sometimes in orphanages, because of Young's reluctance to acknowledge her own child.

Lewis revealed in her 1994 memoir "Uncommon Knowledge" that she was conceived in 1935 when Young, 22, and the married Gable, 34, were shooting "The Call of the Wild."
Young, who was unmarried at the time, concealed her pregnancy and subsequently the birth. Nineteen months after Lewis was born, Young brought her home and told the public that she had adopted a child.
In 1940, Young married Thomas Lewis, and Judy Lewis took his surname -- but she was never formally adopted by her stepfather.
"It was very difficult for me as a little girl not to be accepted ... by my mother, who to this day will not publicly acknowledge that I am her biological child," Lewis said in 1994.
According to an authorized biography published after Young's death in 2000, she confirmed that Lewis was her daughter with Gable.
Lewis met Gable, who died in 1960, once when she was a teenager but she did not learn he was her father for several years after that meeting.
According to the Los Angeles Times, her parenthood was an open secret in Hollywood but Lewis' classmates and friends had been instructed not to tell her.
Two weeks before her wedding to Joseph Tinney, Lewis developed cold feet and wanted to pull out because she did not know who she was.
Lewis said her fiance told her, "Judy, don't worry about it. I know everything about you. You're Clark Gable's daughter," leaving her gobsmacked. The marriage to Tinney ended in 1972 and he died in 1999, the Inquirer reported.
Following a confrontation, Young confirmed that Gable was her father but begged Lewis not to tell anyone.
"I had to write this book," Lewis told the Times when her biography was released. "I don't think anyone knows what it's like not to be acknowledged by your own parents."
After graduating high school in Los Angeles, Lewis made her way to New York to pursue an acting career, the Inquirer said. She appeared on Broadway as well as in daytime soaps such "General Hospital."
From the eighties, she worked as a counselor after studying for degrees in clinical psychology.
Lewis -- who lived in Palm Springs, Calif., Gladwyne, Pa., and Longport, N.J., throughout the years -- is survived by her partner Steve Rowland, her daughter, son-in-law, two grandsons, and three half-brothers, including John Clark Gable.
A service will be held for Lewis at Gladwyne's St. John Vianney Church at 11:30am local time Saturday.

Penn State Bought Adult .XXX Domain Names to Block Usage Prior to Sex Abuse Scandal Published November 30, 2011 |

Penn State University -- now wracked by the sex-abuse allegations against former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky -- purchased several .XXX domains roughly two months before news of the ongoing child sex-abuse scandal surfaced.

A FoxNews.com investigation found that Penn State was not alone, as fellow Big 10 Conference member Ohio State University also purchased a total of 19 domains, including buckeyeblitz.xxx and goldpants.xxx.

In September, Penn State spokesman Jeffrey Hermann said the university purchased four .xxx domains -- Penn State, PSU, Nittany Lions and The Pennsylvania State University -- or the most popular of its federally registered trademarks.

"The cost was $200 per trademark, but this purchase should also prevent someone from buying a domain that includes our trademark along with other words," Hermann wrote FoxNews.com in an email. "Our purchase of nittanylion.xxx is intended to prevent someone from purchasing a url such as nittanyliongirls."

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), which regulates Internet naming, approved the .xxx domain for pornographic websites in March. It allowed colleges and other organizations to purchase the domains before the general public is allowed to do so on Dec. 6.

Each domain listing lasts 10 years.

Rick Van Brimmer, director of trademark and licensing services at Ohio State University, said the school started its process in August and submitted 19 domains to ICANN. Other domain names included theshoe.xxx and scarletandgray.xxx, Brimmer told FoxNews.com.

In early November, former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky was charged with allegedly abusing eight boys throughout a 15-year period. A ninth victim -- who is not among those identified in a grand jury report released last month -- said Wednesday that he was sexually abused more than 100 times after meeting Sandusky through The Second Mile charity he founded in 1977, according to a civil lawsuit that also names the university and the charity as defendants.

Sandusky, the former one-time heir apparent to former Penn State head coach Joe Paterno, has since acknowledged showering with young boys but denied molesting them.

The growing sex-abuse scandal has rocked Penn State, resulting in the departures of school President Graham Spanier and Paterno. Athletic Director Tim Curley has also been placed on administrative leave, and Vice President Gary Schultz has stepped down.

Schultz and Curley have been charged with lying to the grand jury and failure to report to police. Both have maintained their innocence.
