A process for producing a cosmetic-impregnated sheet which comprises applying and infiltrating a cosmetic base to and into a base sheet having on the surface thereof a retentive sheet capable of absorbing and retaining the cosmetic base at a shear rate of 102 to 106 s−1, the cosmetic base being applied to and infiltrated into the retentive sheet of the base sheet, and the cosmetic base, when subjected to a steady shear deformation at a shear rate of 2 s−1 for 100 seconds followed by a steady shear deformation at a stepwise increased shear rate of 20 s−1, showing no shear stress growth or showing such a shear stress growth that the difference between the peak shear stress B at a shear rate of 20 s−1 and the equilibrium shear stress A at the same shear rate, B−A, is 20% or smaller of the equilibrium shear stress A in the transition between the two shear rates.

A vehicle includes a high-voltage battery, a socket for connection of a charging cable of an external power supply apparatus for charging the high-voltage battery, and a load for cooling and heating and a load for warming-up an engine that serve as in-vehicle loads receiving electric power from the high-voltage battery or an auxiliary machinery battery and controlled by a control device. The control device drives the in-vehicle electric load in response to disconnection of the charging cable from the socket. Preferably, the control device stops the in-vehicle electric load that has been driven when a prescribed stop condition is satisfied.

An organic EL light emitting device, in which a plurality of divided light emitting segments are connected in series, is efficiently manufactured without separate coating of organic EL light emitting layers with the use of a vapor-deposition mask. Conductor parts 5 are respectively formed on first electrodes 2b and 2c in boundary parts of adjacent light emitting segments a, b and c. Organic light emitting layers 3a to 3c and second electrode 4a to 4c are respectively stacked on each of the first electrode 2a to 2c. The conductor part 5 has a function for electrically connecting the first electrodes and the second electrodes in the adjacent light emitting segments, whereby the light emitting segments are connected in series.

An optical disc apparatus reads the address information from an optical disc which has tracks and track spaces formed between tracks. The apparatus has an optical head which irradiates the disc with light and includes tracking detectors, divided into a first detector and a second detector in a track direction, detecting the light reflected from the disc and outputting detection signals, an adjusting circuit which adjusts amplitudes of the first and second detection signals and outputs the signals at a position where the address information is recorded, a differential amplifying circuit which outputs the differential signal which is the difference between the adjusted first and second detection signals, and an address detecting circuit which detects the address information based on the differential signal. As a result, the optical disc apparatus accurately detects whether information is being recorded on a correct track and improves the reliability during recording.
