Diabetes mellitus in dogs happens when the beta cells in the pancreas stop producing insulin (leading to type 1 diabetes) or produce enough insulin though cells improperly use it (leading to type 2 diabetes).
Diabetes in dogs can be treated.
It doesn't need to make the life expectancies of dogs shorter than usual.
If not treated, however, the condition could lead to cataracts, malnutrition, diabetic ketoacidosis, dehydration and possibly death.
Diabetes mostly affects middle-aged and older dogs.
There are, however, juvenile cases.
The typical dog with diabetes is overweight or obese and middle-aged.
Females are affected almost three times more often than male dogs.
But there are arguments about whether or not neutering male dogs may increase the risks of developing diabetes.
Some data mention that male dogs' risks of becoming obese double or triple after they are neutered.
Diabetes is commonly split into two types: type 1 and type 2.
Type 1 diabetes (previously called "juvenile diabetes") happens when the beta cells of the pancreas are either destroyed or severely damaged.
The condition, in the past, was also called "insulin-dependent diabetes".
That means insulin injections must replace the insulin the pancreas is no longer capable of producing for the body's needs.
Type 1 is the most common form of diabetes and affects approximately 0.34% of dogs.
Type 2 diabetes does develop in dogs.
However, this form is not as common as type 1.
Because of this, there is no possibility the permanently damaged pancreatic beta cells could re-activate to bring about a remission (meaning no evidence of the disease) as may be possible with some feline diabetes cases.
In cats, the usual type of diabetes is type 2.
Gestational diabetes does happen in dogs.
The condition, though, does not happen in dogs as often as for human beings.
Genetic susceptibility of certain breeds
This list of risk factors for canine diabetes is taken from the genetic breed study.
This study was published in 2007.
The "neutral risk" category should be taken for being not enough evidence that the dog breed genetically shows a high, moderate, or a low risk for the disease.
All risk information is based only on discovered genetic factors.
High risk
Moderate risk
Neutral risk
Mixed Breed
West Highland Terrier
Low risk

This is a list of cities of Malaysia.
In Malaysia, there are 18 areas granted city status (bandar raya) by law.
However, there are also highly urbanised and populated areas that do not have city status but are sometimes colloquially also referred to as cities.
Other populated areas which do not have city status are legally categorised as municipalities or towns.
Cities of Malaysia
The following is a list of places in Malaysia in order by the date they were granted city status.
Former city within Malaysia
George Town became a city on 1 January 1957 by a royal charter granted by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, becoming the first town in the Federation of Malaya to become a city (Singapore became a city in 1951).
The royal charter stated that :"... the said Municipality of George Town shall on the First Day of January in the year of Our Lord One thousand nine hundred and fifty-seven and forever after that be a city and shall be called and styled the CITY OF GEORGE TOWN instead of the Municipality of George Town and shall thenceforth have all such rank, liberties, privileges and immunities as are incident to a City.
"However, local government elections were abolished by the federal government in 1965, and the functions of the City Council were transferred to the Chief Minister of Penang in 1966.
A Municipal Council for the whole of Penang Island, the Penang Island Municipal Council, was set up between 1974 and 1976.
Although the city status of George Town was never officially revoked, George Town's existence as a corporate entity was in doubt, let alone as a city.
This is similar to the position of the former city of Rochester in England, the site of England's second-oldest cathedral, which had been a city from 1211 until 1998 when it was merged with a neighbouring borough.
As the new council was not granted city status, and the city, through oversight, failed to appoint charter trustees to inherit the city charter, the city ceased to exist.
Most residents disagreed with this view, who held that as George Town's city status has never been revoked, it remains a city to this day.
According to lawyer Datuk Anwar Fazal, George Town "legally has been and is still a city because the City of George Town Ordinance 1957 had not been repealed''".[3] As city status is a matter of law, the actual legal position will depend on an analysis of the City Council of Penang (Transfer of Functions) Order 1966 and the Local Government Act 1976.
On 1 January 2015, the Malaysian federal government upgraded the Penang Island Municipal Council into the present-day Penang Island City Council, thereby expanding the city limit of George Town to encompass the entirety of Penang Island, as well as a handful of surrounding islets.
Subsequent cities
The royal charters for Kuala Lumpur, Kuching, Kota Kinabalu, Shah Alam, Malacca City, Alor Setar and Miri were from the Malaysian head of state, the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, while Ipoh, Johor Bahru, Iskandar Puteri and Subang Jaya were granted by their respective state sultans.
Malacca City was declared a "historical city" prior to being granted city status in 2003.
Kuala Lumpur, the largest city, is the national capital and a federal territory, but as of 2012, most government ministries have relocated to the new administrative capital of Putrajaya.
Among the latest (2008) basic criteria for granting City status on a local government is that it has a minimum population of 500,000 and an annual income of not less than RM 100 million.
Locations of cities
Kuala Lumpur is by far the largest urban area as well as the largest metropolitan area in Malaysia.
George Town, the capital city of Penang, is the second-largest city in Malaysia and the heart of Malaysia's second-largest conurbation.
To the south, the twin cities of Johor Bahru and Iskandar Puteri form the core of the third-largest metropolitan area in the country.
Other metropolitan areas with a population of more than 500,000 include Ipoh, Kuching, and Kota Kinabalu.
The states and federal territories of Malaysia are the principal administrative divisions of Malaysia.
Malaysia is a federation of 13 states (Negeri) and 3 federal territories (Wilayah Persekutuan).
States and federal territories
11 states and 2 federal territories are located on the Malay Peninsula, collectively called Peninsular Malaysia (Semenanjung Malaysia) or West Malaysia.
2 states are on the island of Borneo, and the remaining federal territory consists of islands offshore of Borneo; they are collectively referred to as East Malaysia or Malaysian Borneo.
Out of the 13 states in Malaysia, 9 are monarchies.
Federal Territories
Restoration of Sabah and Sarawak status
In conjunction with the celebration of Malaysia Day in 2018 under the new Pakatan Harapan (PH) government, Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has promised to restore Sabah and Sarawak status in the Malaysian federation in accordance with the Malaysia Agreement, changing "their status from merely a state to an equal partner of the Malayan states".
Although the status of both entities were clearly defined in Article I, Malaysia Agreement 1963 as 'states' which shall be federated with the existing states of the Federation of Malaya.
However, through the process of the amendment, the bill failed to pass following the failure to reach two-thirds majority support (148 votes) in the Parliament with only 138 agreed with the move while 59 abstained from the voting.
Nevertheless, the Malaysian federal government agreed to review the 1963 agreement to remedy breaches of the treaty with the "Special Cabinet Committee To Review the Malaysia Agreement" and directed a Special Task Force Team (Taskforce MA63) to prepare a final report on the 1963 agreement before 31 August 2019.
The governance of the states is divided between the federal government and the state governments, while the federal territories are directly administered by the federal government.
Nine of the peninsular states, based on historical Malay kingdoms, are known as the Malay states.
Each Malay state has a hereditary ruler as titular head of state and an executive Chief Minister or Menteri Besar as politically responsible head of government.
The rulers of Johor, Kedah, Kelantan, Pahang, Perak, Selangor and Terengganu are styled Sultans.
Negeri Sembilan's elective ruler holds the title of Yamtuan Besar, whereas the ruler of Perlis is titled Raja.
The federal head of state, the Yang di-Pertuan Agong (commonly referred to as "King" in English) is elected (de facto rotated) among the nine rulers to serve a 5-year term.
Former British settlements and crown colonies of Penang and Malacca (both peninsular), and Sabah and Sarawak (both on Borneo) each have a titular Governor (styled Yang di-Pertua Negeri) appointed by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and an executive Chief Minister or Ketua Menteri.
Sabah and Sarawak have additional powers over their immigration controls as part of the 20-point agreement and 18-point agreement drawn up by respective states when they, together with the Federation of Malaya and Singapore, formed Malaysia.
Passports are required even for Peninsular Malaysians for travelling between either state and Peninsular Malaysia, or between the two states, however those who are on social/business visits up to three months are allowed to produce a MyKad or birth certificate and obtain a special printout form in lieu of a passport.
Members of DUN are elected from single-member constituencies drawn based on population.
The term of DUN members is five years unless the assembly is dissolved earlier by the Ruler or Governor on the advice of the Chief Minister.
Usually, DUN of the states in Peninsular Malaysia are dissolved in conjunction with the dissolution of the federal parliament, to have state elections running concurrently with the parliamentary election.
However, Rulers and Governors hold discretionary powers in withholding consent to dissolve the DUN.
Each state sends two senators elected by the DUN to the Dewan Negara (Senate), the upper house of the federal parliament.
The Parliament of Malaysia is permitted to legislate on issues of land, Islamic religion and local government to provide for a uniform law between different states, or on the request of the state assembly concerned.
The 3 federal territories were formed for different purposes: Kuala Lumpur is the national capital, Putrajaya is the administrative centre of the federal government, and Labuan serves as an offshore financial centre.
Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya were carved out of Selangor, while Labuan was ceded by Sabah.
The territories fall under the purview of the Ministry of the Federal Territories, and the Parliament of Malaysia legislates on all matters concerning the territories.
Each federal territory elects representatives from single-member constituencies drawn based on population to the Dewan Rakyat (House of Representatives) of the Parliament.
The Yang di-Pertuan Agong appoints senators to represent the territories in the Dewan Negara; Kuala Lumpur has two senators, while Putrajaya and Labuan each has one.
The local governments for the territories varies: Kuala Lumpur is administered by the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur), headed by an appointed mayor (Datuk Bandar), while Putrajaya is administered by the Putrajaya Corporation (Perbadanan Putrajaya) and Labuan by the Labuan Corporation (Perbadanan Labuan); each corporation is headed by a chairman.
Sabah and Sarawak
The states of Sabah and Sarawak merged with the existing states of the Federation of Malaya and Singapore pursuant to the Malaysia Agreement in 1963 to form the independent state of Malaysia.
Representatives from Sabah and Sarawak demanded a higher degree of autonomy as part of the bargain which were included in the 20-point agreement and 18-point agreement respectively.
It has also been argued that Sabah and Sarawak have equal status to that of Malaya as a whole, however the Constitution of Malaysia have listed both these entities as merely 2 of the 13 states of Malaysia, suggesting an equal status with the states of Malaya.
Sabah and Sarawak still retains a relatively higher degree of autonomy compared to the peninsular states in areas such as immigration, some control over state revenue and legislative power over land and local government.
Singapore was a Malaysian state from the formation of Malaysia on 16 September 1963 until it was expelled from the Federation on 9 August 1965.
During its time as a state of Malaysia, Singapore had autonomy in the areas of education and labour and was the smallest state in Malaysia by land area.
Brunei was invited to join the Federation but decided not to at the end due to several issues, such as the status of the Sultan within Malaysia, division of Bruneian oil royalties, and pressure from opposition groups which amounted to the Brunei Revolt.

The oldest parts of the Masoretic Text, which is where we get modern Hebrew Bibles, are from the 9th century CE.
Almost no biblical writing was written at the same time as the events it talks about.
For example, most of the writings about Jesus Christ were written long after he lived, some of them hundreds of years after.
Table I: Chronological overview of the Hebrew Bible
These tables show the chronology (order) of the Bible and says when in history they were written.
Much of the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament may have been put together in the 5th century BCE.
Most of the New Testament books were written largely in the second half of the 1st century CE.
The Deuterocanonical books fall largely in between.

is a Businessperson and Japanese former racing driver.
He is the Owner Chairman & CEO of Swift Engineering since 1991.
He is the first and only Japanese driver to win the Toyota Atlantic Championship (Pacific) in 1989 and also the first Japanese driver to race at the Indianapolis 500 (Indy 500).
Matsushita was born in Nishinomiya city, Japan, and graduated from Konan University.
He is the grandson of Kōnosuke Matsushita, founder of Panasonic, and son of Masaharu Matsushita, who served as the second president of Panasonic for sixteen years beginning in 1961.
His relationship has allowed him to receive financial backing from Panasonic throughout his racing career.
Matsushita started his career racing motorcycles in his home country between 1977 and 1979, before making the switch to four wheels.
With Panasonic's backing, he then moved to the United States and entered his first Formula Ford race in 1986.
He finished second at the 24 Hours of Daytona and third at the Sebring 12 Hours in 1988.
Matsushita began to make his name known by winning the 1989 Champ Car Atlantic Championshipchampionship (Pacific division) with the largest point margin of all time.
He graduated to Champ Car in 1990, scoring one point in his debut season.
Inexplicably, he never showed the pace that took him to four Atlantic victories; instead, he quickly earned a reputation for being at the tail end of the grid, always outperformed by his teammates.
Nonetheless, he became the first Japanese driver to race in the Indianapolis 500 in 1991 and followed that achievement with a top ten finish at Milwaukee Mile|Milwaukee.
Matsushita missed the 1992 Indianapolis 500 after suffering a broken leg during a practice crash.
He was sidelined for several weeks and missed the next six events as well.
At the Phoenix International Raceway|Phoenix race in 1994, Matsushita endured a horrific crash in which his car was cut in half by Jacques Villeneuve's car traveling at nearly full speed.
He emerged from his destroyed car with only minor injuries.
The same year, he earned his best career finish of 6th position at the Marlboro 500 at Michigan International Speedway.
This result was made possible by an extraordinarily high rate of attrition that saw only 8 cars finish the race.
Matsushita was 11 laps behind the leader at the drop of the checkered flag.
By the time he retired in 1998, Matsushita had started 117 Champ Car races for Dick Simon Racing, Walker Racing, Arciero/Wells Racing, and Dale Coyne Racing|Payton/Coyne.
He holds the record for most starts in American Championship Car Racing history without scoring a Top 5.
Away from the track, Matsushita owns Swift Engineering, an American engineering firm known for producing racing cars for a variety of open-wheel racing series, including Formula Ford, Formula Atlantic, the Champ Car World Series, and Formula Nippon.
He bought Swift in 1991.
