Meredith Baxter Reveals She's Gay
After recent reports say 'Family Ties' mom Meredith Baxter was spotted on a gay cruise, the actress is coming clean on 'Today,' saying: "I want to say I'm a lesbian, and it was a later-in-life recognition." In an interview with Matt Lauer, Baxter -- who has been married three times and has five children -- says she figured out her sexuality seven years ago.
"Some people would say, well, you're living a lie and, you know, the truth is – not at all. This has only been for the past seven years," Baxter told Lauer. She says she didn't disclose this before because she has "always lived a very private life," and that "to come out and disclose stuff is very antithetical to who I am."
Baxter says that she realized she needed to come forward because she "got involved with someone I never expected to get involved with, and it was an awakening. I understood why I have the issue in my life ... I was involved with people who made me think they're the problem. It never occurred to me, that it was me," Baxter said.
The actress has been dating building contractor Nancy Locke for four years and acknowledges that she's the reason she decided to come out publicly.
"As much as my family knew, I was not ready to make any big announcement, I didn't want to do that. And there was one time when I was concerned that there might be some press interest ... I didn't know but I got a little paranoid and Nancy's a general contractor so she has a truck ... And I said, 'Could you park down the street, please?' and she said, 'No.'" Meredith explained.
"I had to reach a level of comfort because it wasn't fair to push her back into secrecy. We live very out lives in Los Angeles," she said.
According to LimeLife, Locke, who is 54, and Baxter met through mutual friends.
Speculation about Meredith's sexuality was raised when tabloid magazine The National Enquirer reported that she was spotted on a gay cruise recently.
Baxter shot to fame thanks to her role as matriarch Elyse Keaton on the hit '80s sitcom 'Family Ties.' Before her success there, she already had a long career in showbiz, with acting gigs dating all the way back to 1971. She had stints on 'The Love Boat,' 'Family' and 'Bridget Loves Bernie,' among other shows and movies.
Baxter has five children from three separate marriages. She had two children with husband Ted Bush, and later had three more with David Birney.
In recent years, Baxter has become very focused on charity work since she survived breast cancer. She's since started her own charity -- the Meredith Baxter Foundation for Breast Cancer Research.

Well said, I'm sick and tired of people assuming that every republican is a homophobe or that all Christians are for that matter because it's simply not true and a false assumption. When are we going to stop forming our worldviews solely on what we see on the media? I believe that God has given all of us a choice. The Bible does not, from what I can see, teach people to force others to follow God. They will answer to God just as I will and that should be enough to humble anybody.

Gay marriage SHOULD be allowed. Because this country is NOT a Christian Nation. We have a Separation of Church (religion) and State (government). So when we go down to the GOVERNMENT office to obtain a MARRIAGE LICENSE, why does the BIBLE determine which law-abiding, consenting, tax-paying, citizens can obtain the license or not? This should be a no-brainer... I am not a Christian so my understanding of God is not the same as theirs. In our religion we recognize all God's children and love them the same - there is no SIN involved in homosexuality. I thank GOD I am not of the religion of hatred and intolerance.

I'm sorry if some of you republicans are upset about being called homophobes, but if it bothers you that much perhaps you should work to make sure your party reflects who you are, instead of supporting these religious zealots and haters. Being a Democrat (and NOT a liberal), I know how you feel being pidgeon-holed, and I think perhaps if both parties tried to be repectful and stopped the name-calling and the "my team must win at all costs" attitude...maybe we could actually solve some of this country's problems.

SORRY, "marriage" is already taken. It tells everyone that a (unrelated) man and a woman are "married" to each other. Call it something else and quit diminishing the holy scrament of marriage.
I have several gay friends and quite frankly, I liked them better when they were in the closet. I have no problem with gay's, it their choice. I am getting sick of the "in my face" crap from them. And honestly, most male homo's are just plain freaks top begin with

It appears that barbara big butt is the one on here who has a problem with gays. As a conservative, I have always enjoyed Baxter's shows and tv movies. I wish her the very best and hope she finds the happiness she is looking for. So shame on barbara big butt for bringing hate onto this board.

Gay marriage is an oxymoron. Let those who are gay develop their own name for their partnerships. Marriage should be allowed to continue to mean the same thing it always has. As for hate, I see more of it in your post than I see exhibited by those who share my opinion.

Sorry, but you are wrong!
Being gay is a sexual choice and goes against the natural boundarie's of human nature.
Now, I wouldn't expect somebody like you to understand, since your obviously one of those bleeding heart liberals who are ruining this wonderful nation of our's, and an illiterate.
Gay's need to keep their sexual preference behind closed doors. If not for that lack of interest to those of us who are against gay marriages, but for our young children as well. Kids are innocent and shouldn't be exposed to these life-styles, seeig how it is a SEXUAL preference.
At this rate, it won't be longer before people like you are voting for XX-rated shows to be brought down to a g-rated movie's and our children are exposed to porn.
I pray and hope that you don't have any kids and never do. Lord only knows how your child would turn out.

I don't see why anyone cares who has sex with someone of the same sex, infants, or animals. I married my dog last night. I am a polygamist and have also married a horse and am engaged to my pig and the kids next door. The laws in this country won't let me marry children without their "parents" consent. It is my right to marry and have sex with whoever and whatever we want...we are all animals afterall...lets start acting like them!!!

A new report shows that almost 80 per cent of Canadians are now using smartphones to shop and make their purchases.
Furthermore, coverage of the latest surveys by the Edmonton Journal shows that 79 per cent of Canadians between the ages of 18 and 29 years old and as many as 77 per cent of those aged 25 to 54 are using mobile devices in conjunction with shopping in Canadian retail stores.
While 10 per cent of the surveyed Canadians have used mobile payments, less than a quarter of shoppers say they feel comfortable using their smartphones to make payments, rather prefer to use credit cards and cash in stores. Click here to read more.. »

End of Suburbia?
There's been a lot of chatter lately about the documentary film End of Suburbia. From the film's website:
With brutal honesty and a touch of irony, The End of Suburbia explores the American Way of Life and its prospects as the planet approaches a critical era, as global demand for fossil fuels begins to outstrip supply. World Oil Peak and the inevitable decline of fossil fuels are upon us now, some scientists and policy makers argue in this documentary. ... As energy prices skyrocket in the coming years, how will the populations of suburbia react to the collapse of their dream? Are today's suburbs destined to become the slums of tomorrow?
Over at Portland Transport, metro councilor Rex Burkholder has a review:
I've got to say, the film veered perilously close to being a horror flick — complete with approaching, seemingly invincible monster that will destroy life as we know it.
Check out the rest at Portland Transport and discuss over there.
Oh, and see a few clips here.

MBAs Aren't Always Business as Usual
By RELEVANT
December 19, 2011
Many schools now prioritize preparing students for social stewardship
Though many students pursue post-graduate education with hopes of getting a high-paying job or to bolster their résumé during a recession, a lot of them have a greater good in mind. With suffering economies around the world, an increasing emphasis on social justice and a growing knowledge of environmental needs, many students are demanding degrees that allow them to confront these issues—and schools are rising to meet that demand.
For starters, an MBA isn't just an excuse to put on a suit and tie for class presentations. Beyond Grey Pinstripes, a survey conducted by the Aspen Institute Center for Business Education ranks MBA programs by their social and environmental impact. It looks at the availability of courses that contain social, environmental and ethical content, how often the student is exposed to such content, and how many courses specifically deal with the intersection of social issues in for-profit business. Since 2009, the Aspen Institute has seen a 38 percent increase in how many required courses of finance departments pertain to social, ethical or environmental content.
"The financial crisis caused schools to be more introspective about what they are teaching," says Judy Samuelson, Aspen's director of business and society. "They were criticized for being part of the problem, and not part of the solution. And that has created an environment where faculty can innovate and make change."
About a quarter of graduate degrees are business-related, with another 20 percent of undergraduate degrees falling into this field.
"The reason we are seeing change is that the millennials are demanding it," Samuelson says. "[They] want business to be seen in the context of the big issues of our day."
The Top 10 MBA Programs with Social and Environmental Emphasis
- Stanford Graduate School of Business
- Univ. of Notre Dame
- Yale School of Management
- Northwestern University
- Univ. of Michigan
- Cornell University
- Univ. of North Carolina
- UC Berkeley
- GWU School of Business

COMMENT :Bank merger a harbinger of things to come
"Size is no guarantee of greatness or success . . . Nonetheless, the emergence of some American champions on the international stage plainly changes the banking landscape quite dramatically"
Wednesday 30 August 1995
Both laws are in the process of being dismantled, though deregulation is not the immediate cause of this latest merger. Both Chase and Chemical are New York banks and they could have merged before. This is a marriage primarily driven by the need for cost-cutting. It carries with it all the usual starry-eyed rhetoric about the creation of a truly global financial services company, of course, but fundamentally this is a slash and burn merger designed to place Chase and Chemical at the forefront of efficiency in a world of ever-shrinking lending margins. Chase has also been under growing pressure from investors to do something about its lamentable record on shareholder value.
However, though there may be company- specific reasons for this get-together, it is also almost certainly a harbinger of things to come. There are about 11,000 state and regional banks in the US. Once deregulation is complete in two years, the numbers will begin to shrink. Analysts reckon that with each merger it may be possible to lop some 30 per cent off costs. Once the law allows it, the forces are therefore such that it will be hard not to merge; it is possible that we will see the emergence of a handful of powerful American behemoths.
Size is no guarantee of greatness or success, as the Japanese banks have proved. Nonetheless, the emergence of some American champions on the international stage plainly changes the banking landscape quite dramatically. If the cost-cutting benefits are as great as exponents claim, European banks will have to respond. Further mergers on a national basis are plainly pretty much barred. Lloyds was prevented from countering HSBC's bid for Midland even though, as Sir Brian Pitman, the Lloyds chief executive predicted at the time, the job losses and branch closures involved were going to happen anyway. The same sort of regulatory obstacles would probably obstruct other domestic merger propositions in Europe. As for a cross-border merger, the language and cultural differences involved would almost certainly wipe out any supposed benefit.
Possibly the best that Barclays and other British banks can hope for, therefore, is that the Americans cock up. There is slim chance of this happening, however. The merger of one regional bank with another, or of a commercial bank with a retail bank, should not be too difficult an exercise to undertake. And the prizes for doing so are likely to prove rich indeed.
Entrepreneur of old still alive and well
Who said the flashy1980s entrepreneur, fast living and fast dealing, died with the decade? A classic example of the breed is alive and well and thriving in Sheffield. Step forward, Stephen Hinchliffe, lover of fast cars, flyer of helicopters, shareholder in Sheffield United Football club and now an important force in British retailing.
After a hectic series of deals culminating in the purchase yesterday of more than 200 branches of Manfield and Freeman Hardy Willis, Mr Hinchliffe's recently formed Facia group is now the tenth-largest group of shops in Britain. It is a somewhat motley collection of other retailers' cast-offs, including Sock Shop, Salisbury luggage shops, Oakland menswear and the Contessa lingerie chain.Facia is at present a private company, so if this gluttonous appetite for growth is cause for concern it is, for the moment, none of our business.
Like so many financiers before him, however, Mr Hinchliffe is hungry for the wealth, prestige and access to capital that a stock market quote would give him. If he goes that route, he will have to answer some tough questions. What, apart from the man himself, is the glue that sticks this disparate group of retailing interests together? And then there is the man himself, whose chequered past would normally act like a warning beacon to City investors. Businesses that expand at this kind of break-neck pace normally go horribly wrong. High street experts and potential investors will be watching his progress with more than casual interest.
Meeting the German model in the middle
There was the usual hankering after the German way of doing things yesterday as Malcolm Bruce, the Liberal Democrat Treasury spokesman, introduced the party's new economic policy document. No more was this more apparent than in the advocacy of "stakeholder capitalism", for which Germany is a role model.
The party wants a new system of corporate governance to increase shareholder commitment and combat the culture of short-termism. The new structure would be oriented towards employees, customers and the community, as well as managers and shareholders. All worthy stuff, but as the OECD's report on Germany, also published yesterday, reveals, hardly supported by the evidence. According to the OECD, there is no clear link between corporate governance structures and investment horizons.Like motherhood and apple pie, everyone believes in long-term shareholder commitment. Yet long- termism, too, has its price if unwarranted loyalty cossets companies and encourages feather-bedding.
The goal must be to strike a balance between the incentives for change and restructuring that come from the Anglo-Saxon model and the incentives for persistence and strategic thinking that come from the German model. As the OECD points out, the German model is itself moving towards the Anglo-Saxon one under international pressure. That is where we should seek to meet it.
Running ahead of the hounds
The amount of money riding on whether the three bids for regional electricity companies are referred to the Monopolies and Mergers Commission grows larger by the day. But if we don't yet know which way Ian Lang, Secretary of State for trade and industry, will jump, we know what one of his ministers thinks. While a humble back-bencher, the luckless Richard Page was the only Tory to sign a Labour early-day motion calling on the Government to refer any bid for an electricity company and to review the "total failure" of regulators to safeguard customers' interests. Mr Page is now Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Industry and Energy. Oh, dear.

Algeria hostage crisis ends: Details of carnage emerge
Islamist gunmen kill seven foreign hostages in Algeria before being gunned down by Special Forces in final assault on gas complex.
Middle East Online
By Lotfi Mokdad - IN AMENAS (Algeria)
Foreign survivors leave
Islamist gunmen killed seven foreign hostages in Algeria on Saturday before being gunned down by Special Forces in a final assault on a remote desert gas complex, state television said.
The 11 heavily armed men from a group known as "Signatories in Blood" had been holed up at the In Amenas complex since they took hundreds of workers hostage in a dawn attack on Wednesday.
Most of the hostages, including about 100 foreigners, had been freed after the Algerian forces launched a bloody rescue operation on Thursday, which was widely condemned as hasty, but some 30 remained unaccounted for.
In Saturday's final assault, "the Algerian army took out 11 terrorists, and the terrorist group killed seven foreign hostages," state TV said. It did not give the nationalities of those who died.
As army helicopters overflew the gas plant, a security official gave the same toll for both the captors and hostages killed, adding it was believed "they were killed in retaliation".
The gunmen, cited by Mauritania's ANI news agency, had said earlier they were still holding "seven foreign hostages".
On Friday, they had given a breakdown of three Belgians, two Americans, one Japanese and a Briton still captive, although Brussels said there was no indication any of its nationals were being held.
An Algerian security official had put the remaining number of foreign hostages at 10.
Norway's Statoil, which jointly operates the In Amenas site with Britain's BP and Sonatrach of Algeria, said two Norwegians have been found alive but six others were missing.
After the assault, a security official said 25-27 foreign and Algerian hostages had been killed over the four-day crisis, but the exact number of those seized and still unaccounted for was unclear.
On Friday, an official had said troops were trying to reach a "peaceful" end to the crisis, before "neutralising the terrorist group that is holed up in the plant and freeing a group of hostages still being held there."
Amid what had been a virtual news blackout in Algiers, harshly criticised by local media, world leaders took a tough stand on the fate of the remaining hostages.
US Defence Secretary Leon Panetta said Washington would "take all necessary steps to protect our people" from the threat of Al-Qaeda-affiliated militants in North Africa.
Earlier, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton spoke of her deep concern "about those who remain in danger. Utmost care must be taken to preserve innocent life."
At least one American had already been confirmed dead before Saturday's final assault.
In Tokyo, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe ordered his government to do everything possible to ensure the safety of those Japanese unaccounted for in "an extremely despicable" incident that "can never be forgiven".
"Signatories in Blood," led by Algerian Mokhtar Belmokhtar, a former senior Al-Qaeda commander in north Africa, were demanding an end to French intervention against Islamists in neighbouring Mali, ANI reported earlier.
Belmokhtar also wanted to exchange American hostages for the blind Egyptian sheikh Omar Abdul Rahman and Pakistani Aafia Siddiqui, jailed in the United States on charges of terrorist links.
But State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said "the United States does not negotiate with terrorists".
France, which said on Saturday that 2,000 of the 2,500 troops it had pledged were now on the ground in Mali, said that no more of its citizens were being held.
Of the French intervention in Mali, Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said at a meeting in Abidjan on Saturday that "France was obliged to intervene very, very rapidly, otherwise there would have been no more Mali".
Algerian news agency APS quoted a government official as saying the kidnappers, who claimed to have come from Niger, were armed with machineguns, assault rifles, rocket launchers and missiles.
This was confirmed by an Algerian driver, Iba El Haza, who said the hostage-takers spoke in different Arabic dialects and perhaps also in English.
"From their accents I understood one was Egyptian, one Tunisian, another Algerian and one was speaking English or (another) foreign language," Haza said, two days after escaping during the army's Thursday attack.
"The terrorists said: 'You have nothing to do with this, you are Algerians and Muslims. We won't keep you, we only want the foreigners.'"
Algeria's El Watan daily quoted a former military officer as justifying the army's assault on Thursday, saying: "All hesitation is forbidden when the future of the nation is at stake or being threatened."
The final death tolls, of both foreign and Algerian hostages and of gunmen, was not yet known.

I guarantee you that she can swim faster than any of the kids on the M-A team today (even the boys). Knows her stuff.

Australian Miners Tap Ants, Termites to Find Undiscovered Gold Deposits
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Vittorio Hernandez | December 11, 2012 10:14 AM EST
While science has come up with modern devices to find gold, traditional methods such as panning bodies of water continue to be popular and proven ways to find the yellow metal.
However, Australian miners are now resorting to tapping ants and termites - considered as pests by many households - to lead them to undiscovered gold deposits. Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) research scientist Aaron Stewart explained that these small insects stockpile traces of heavy metal, including gold, on ant mounds, particularly located in deep underground nests in the Australian Outback.
He explained that the sub-surface materials ant colonies bring up are good indicators of undetected mineral deposits beneath the surface. Mr Stewart pointed out that a great part of Australia is covered by a layer of earth that hides buried minerals.
"But signs of resources are often close to the surface. In some places we have shown that termites and ants can bridge that gap by bringing up evidence from 5m down," News.com.au quoted Mr Stewart.
However, he clarified that anthills may not be rich sources of gold dust, but could yield few telltale signs.
Tapping insects to find hidden resources is actually an old technology based on writing of Greek historian Herodotus over 2,000 years ago that large burrowing ants in the Indian part of the Persian Empire helped discover gold dusts while tunnels were being dug.
While mining companies said the CSIRO report would probably not alter the way they explore for gold and other resources, they acknowledged that ants and other insects could become vital tools in future exploration.
He said the findings could help Australian miners reduce the cost of their traditional exploration methods of drilling grids of holes, which can run into thousands of dollars per hole.
The CSIRO report came out in the November 2012 issue of Geochemistry journal and PLoS ONE.
Because of the fiscal cliff, eurozone debt crisis and corporate earnings recession, many investors are uncertain about the prospects for gold prices in 2013, with opinion divided that prices could either rally or crash next year.

Video: Wait, DeMar DeRozan likes Justin Bieber? Really?
Nov 23, 2011, 2:11 PM EDT
I used to feel for DeMar DeRozan, a thin-blooded Los Angeles guy freezing up in Toronto playing some good ball. A guy who should have lasted longer in the Dunk Contest. And this The Basketball Jones interview starts off gaining points as he gives a shout out to Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles.
Then he admits he likes Justin Bieber.
He says some other stuff after that. I am too stunned to remember. Bieber. DeRozan can come over to my house and talk with my 7-year-old daughter about him, they'd have him in common.

RED HILL — Both starting pitchers, Quakertown left-hander Vince LaCava and Perkiomen right-hander Levi Stoudt, took one-hit shutouts into the seventh inning of their Bux-Mont League American Legion matchup Monday evening at Bonekemper Field.
Through six innings, LaCava had yielded only a leadoff single to center field. Jacob Perrine had earned the Blue Jays' only hit with a line single to right-center field with two outs in the third inning.
In the top of the seventh, Quakertown capitalized on a combination of some luck, a crucial Post 184 error and solid execution of fundamentals, as LaCava drove in Aaron Besch with the first run of the game.
LaCava then struck out the side in the bottom of the frame to complete the 1-0 victory.
Quakertown manager Bob Helm further underscored the context of LaCava's pitching performance beyond helping the Blue Jays (11-9-1, 6-7-1 Bux-Mont) in their playoff push with six games left, having won their second straight game after a tough 7-6, extra-inning loss Friday at Nor-Gwyn.
"The last few games we had been walking a lot of guys (as a pitching staff) — that's how we lost the Nor-Gwyn game — so we told our guys to pound the (strike) zone more and to limit the walks," Helm said. "I believe that is our first shutout in three years."
"There have been some good pitchers over the years," LaCava said. "We were close in the past, and I'm glad to get the first in a while."
As well as LaCava and Stoudt were pitching, the winning team would need to take advantage of a break.
The Blue Jays got it when Aaron Besch led off the seventh with a slow grounder near the third-base line. Besch got a hit for beating the throw, which sailed high and allowed Besch to reach second.
Post 184 manager Mike Fitzgerald said after the game that the regular third baseman, Tom Aaron, had missed the game after fouling ball off his foot during pre-game batting practice.
The infield hit and a Perkiomen reserve's overthrow became part of Quakertown's luck.
The rest was about small-ball execution.
Tyler Guidos sacrificed Besch to third with a sacrifice bunt that Stoudt had to field and to throw to first base for the first out.
The next batter, LaCava, then lined an 0-1 pitch into left field to score Besch.
"I've been a third- or fourth-hitter almost all my life, but they move me down to sixth in the lineup when I pitch," said LaCava, who also plays first base.
"I told my teammates in the sixth and seventh innings that they just have to get on base, and if I come up (to bat), I'll hit them in — I just need one run."
Earlier, Quakertown's defense had helped erase a Perkiomen leadoff walk off to LaCava in the bottom of the third inning.
On an ensuing stolen-base attempt, Guidos threw down to the second baseman Perrine, who applied the tag. LaCava then retired the next two batters to end the inning.
"In a close-scoring game, all the small things count," Besch said. "So it's important to be good at those situations."
On the mound, LaCava had struck out only one Post 184 batter through six innings but finished with four for the game.
"As one of the older players on the team, I need to set an example and to be a leader," said LaCava, who is headed to DeSales University in the fall.
"The last inning was exciting, because it was all on me — I just needed to get ground balls or strikeouts — the adrenalin was pumping, and I was throwing heat tonight (in the seventh).
"I usually don't have the stuff to strike people out. But if it's there, I'll take it."

Calgary, AB (SportsNetwork.com) - Henrik Sedin tallied a goal and an assist as the Vancouver Canucks defeated the Calgary Flames, 4-2, in the season opener for both teams on Wednesday.
Alexandre Burrows, Zack Kassian and Radim Vrbata all scored for Vancouver in head coach Willie Desjardins' debut at the helm.
Veteran goaltender Ryan Miller, who signed a three-year, $6 million contract with the Canucks in the offseason, turned aside 23 shots in the win.
"To come on the road and get a win is very important, but I thought what was really important was that we were able to use our whole team," Desjardins said. "Everybody played and everybody contributed."
Paul Byron and Jiri Hudler lit the lamp for Calgary, which lost its eighth straight game against Vancouver.
Jonas Hiller allowed three goals on 32 shots in his first game with the Flames.
"We have a young team and we're going to learn," Calgary head coach Bob Hartley said. "It's too bad because in the third I felt like that's where we played our best hockey."
The Canucks seized the lead for good at the 5:16 of the second period. Kassian tipped Brad Richardson's pass across the crease into an open net for a 2-1 lead.
Vrbata deflected Sedin's shot past Hiller with 8:53 left in the second period. The goal was initially waved off, but was deemed to be good after a lengthy review.
Two minutes later, Sean Monahan collected Alexander Edler's turnover and sent a one-touch pass over to Hudler, who got the Flames within one with a quick wrister from the right side.
Calgary pulled Hiller in favor of an extra attacker with under two minutes to play in regulation. Sedin broke into the Calgary zone with the puck and was hauled down by Mark Giordano, but was still able to whack the puck into the net while sliding feet-first to seal the win.
Burrows redirected Dan Hamhuis' wrister from the point through the five-hole of a screened Hiller for a power-play goal with 8:05 to play in the opening stanza.
The Flames tied the game less than five minutes into the second. Joe Colborne stripped a player of the puck at Calgary's blue line and pushed it up to Byron, who moved up on a 2-on-1 and beat Miller with a wrister through the five hole.

"Johnny Football" Manziel has a month to win Browns QB job
(Reuters) - Johnny Manziel has found instant popularity since being drafted in the first round by the Cleveland Browns, but will have to wait until August to find out if he has the starting quarterback job.
The charismatic Manziel, whose No. 2 jersey has become the National Football League's top seller, is in competition with journeyman Brian Hoyer for the critical assignment.
Browns coach Mike Pettine told reporters at team headquarters on Monday that a starting quarterback would be named by the third week of the preseason if not before.
Pettine said he would meet on Tuesday with offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan and quarterbacks coach Dowell Loggains to decide how to split first-team reps in training camp between former Texas A&M star Manziel and Hoyer.
Hoyer, who has started four games in his NFL career since being signed as an undrafted free agent by the Patriots in 2009, went 3-0 as a starter for Cleveland last season.
"(A decision) could be sooner, and that's something we're going to discuss in that meeting," Pettine said, according to the Akron Beacon Journal.
"I just don't have a date. I don't know if I'll set a date and kind of paint ourselves into a date, but it will be sooner than the third preseason game."
The Browns play their third preseason game on Aug. 23 against the St. Louis Rams.
The NFL announced on Monday that more Manziel Browns jerseys were sold on NFLShop.com during the first fiscal quarter of the year than any other player jersey.
Pettine also said the Browns had no intention of cutting ties with the team's primary receiving target - troubled wide receiver Josh Gordon.
Gordon had been facing a potential lengthy suspension for doping violations before he was arrested on DWI charges earlier this month.
"Josh is a Cleveland Brown. We want to do what's best for him. We have a player that potentially needs help. Whether it's him or whether it's anybody else that wears the uniform, if we can help, we'll help," the coach told cleveland.com.
"I don't think that cutting him (is) necessarily the best option here. It might be the worst option for both - for us and for him."
Gordon's suspension-appeal hearing is expected to take place later this month. Gordon is facing an indefinite ban for violating the league's substance abuse policy for a third time.
If he loses his appeal, he will have to wait a year before applying for re-instatement with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
"We're expecting him to report on Friday and be on the field," Pettine said of Gordon.

On July 23rd, 1972, the first Landsat spacecraft launched into orbit. At the time, it was called "Earth Resources Technology Satellite," or ERTS, and was the first satellite to use a scanning spectrophotometer. Previous satellites relied on film cameras (ejecting the exposed film to be caught by planes) or transmitted the signal from television cameras. The scanning sensor and its successor sensors on subsequent Landsat satellites revolutionized how we study our home planet.
Celebrating this anniversary, this video is a "greatest hits" montage of Landsat data.
