Carol Adams: The Council has studied and consulted very hard on the issue of accountability and the crux is that to get real accountability you need to get the right balance between reporting back on what is measurable and making people genuinely accountable themselves in their day to day practice.
Carol Adams: In the case of inspection, inspection has been very much divorced from advice whereas if Ofsted inspections were linked with giving advice and support, that might bring the external view into play in terms of internal improvement.
Carol Adams: There are a number of elements - we welcome the shorter inspections which would hopefully would focus more on the task in hand, rather than a long period of preparation and a focus on getting through the inspection.

 Meat   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
Her critique of patriarchy notwithstanding, Adams is critical of how feminist discourse unthinkingly "appropriate[s] the metaphor of butchering without acknowledging the originating oppression of animals that generates the power of the metaphor" (41-2).
Adams cites fl feminist writer bell hooks' statement that, in the United States, fl women are likened to hamburger and white women to prime rib.
Adams’ provocative study stumbles at points, especially in the second half when the voice of an impassioned activist overwhelms that of the scholar (she refers to the butchered animal as “she” not “it” so that readers will associate oppression of animals with oppression of women).

Adams' reactions are not surprising, given the several motions made by Mardeusz to disqualify her - including one which potentially could force her off the bench entirely.
Adams' dislike of Mardeusz seems obvious to observers, yet she has refused to recuse herself, she rules on her own disqualification (disqualifications are supposed to go to an independent judge or the judicial council) and she has taken it upon herself to ignore the recommendations of medical professionals.
Carol Mardeusz is a single mom who the DA has accused of an attempt to abduct her own child, and of several counts of perjury relating to paperwork she filed to enforce her custody order.

 Jason Steorts on Carol J. Adams on National Review Online
Adams traverses the campus speaking circuit and presents a slideshow that, according to her website, addresses "the animalizing of women in contemporary cultural images and the sexualizing of animals used for food."
The last possibility never occurs to Adams, who manages to find misogyny in the most curious places — such as, for example, a photograph of a filet mignon with a bite cut from it.
This is not a utopia of liberation for Adams and her barnyard friends; it is a kind of hell where being human doesn't count for much after all.

 Men Can Stop Rape - Resources
Adams points out the necessary correlation that has existed for centuries between meat-eating and power, stretching back to the kings of Medieval England and beyond.
It is no accident, in Adams' mind, that the language surrounding the sexual domination over women so closely mirrors that of the butchering of animals, and vice versa.
Indeed, the extent to which Adams insists that the two are intertwined provides a way to reject a male world that objectifies both animals and women.

 Impurity, Solidarity, and Pleasure in the Politics of Vegetarian Identities: Carol Adams on Animal Rites
Interestingly, Adams closes the argument of her book instead with an evocation of the uses to which nonhuman animal skins have been put historically in the production of written and printed texts, among them no doubt any number of the texts on which she has depended herself to formulate her own critique.
Carol Adams has begun this work already, most conspicuously in her classic account of the co-construction and co-dependence of sexism and carnivorism (a conjunction Derrida designates with the aptly unlovely term "carno-phallogocentrism"), The Sexual Politics of Meat (New York: Continuum, 1990).
Be that as it may, these promises and dangers, it would seem, have haunted the figure of the vegetarian from the very moment of her sudden and quite self-conscious entrance into public discourse in 1847, to the present day.

Carol J. Adams is the author of The Sexual Politics of Meat: A Feminist-Vegetarian Critical Theory and Living among Meat Eaters in addition to six other books and four edited collections.
She was saying some pretty oppressive things: men can't be feminist, transgender people simply reinforce gender stereotypes and shouldn't exist, all porn is bad all the time, etc. But, it spurred some good discussions amongst ourselves.
