'Dosta! a Romani word meaning "enough", is a Council of Europe awareness raising campaign which aims to bring non-Roma closer to Roma citizens by breaking down the barriers caused by prejudices and stereotypes.

History of Dosta!

The Dosta! campaign began as part of a wider Council of Europe and European Commission Joint Program called "Equal Rights and Treatment for Roma in South Easter Europe".

It has been implemented in the following countries in 2006 and 2007:

Originally launched as a regional campaign, “Dosta!” sparked the interest of other Council of Europe Member States and consequently, other states have joined or created partnerships:

Dosta !-Congress Prize for Municipalities

The “DOSTA!-Congress Prize for municipalities” was launched in 2007 by the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities and the Dosta! Campaign as part of their ongoing work to strengthen the role of local authorities in the field of Roma and minority rights’ protection. “Dosta” is a Romani word meaning “enough”.

DOSTA! (English translation: ENOUGH!) is the second studio album by Bosnian rapper Frenkie. This album was only released in Bosnia.

Intro

The album is itself more of a mix tape with original beats and studio album quality. Most accept it as an album. The album is dedicated to the movement Dosta. There is a song Dosta, which isn't on the album, that Frenkie and Dubioza Kolektiv did.

The album

All the songs on the album deal with the political and social situation in Bosnia and Bosnia only. Frenkie does not mention any other Balkan country in the present-day (the exception being the Bosnian war).

Controversy

Frenkie stirred up some controversy with the album. Specifically with the song Mr. Policeman, in which the chorus goes "jebo drota" and "fuck the police". It is aimed at the large scale corruption that the police in Bosnia have. Radio 202 was fined 200 euros for playing the song, Frenkie responded by releasing the song "Massiv" on Fmjam, a song about censoring.

Another song with stirred less controversy is "Rat savezu". A song about the corrupt Bosnian soccer association and a song dedicated to BHFanaticos.

The dog Boye (died 2 July 1644 at the battle of Marston Moor), also Boy, was a celebrated and iconic white hunting poodle belonging to Prince Rupert of the Rhine in the 17th century. Puritan or Roundhead propagandists alleged that the dog was "endowed" with magical powers.

Origins

Boye was first given to Prince Rupert when he was imprisoned in the fortress of Linz during the Thirty Years War. The Earl of Arundel, an Englishman who had grown concerned about Rupert's plight, gave him the animal to keep him company during his confinement. The dog was a rare breed of white hunting poodle; Boye was sufficiently impressive and famous across Europe that the Ottoman Sultan of the day, Murad IV, requested that his ambassador attempt to find him a similar animal. Boye accompanied Rupert during his travels until 1644.

Propaganda and magical powers

Boye accompanied his master from 1642 to 1644 during the English Civil War. Rupert was the iconic Royalist cavalier of the conflict and was frequently the subject of Parliamentarian propaganda. Boye, who often accompanied Rupert into battle, featured heavily in this, and was widely suspected of being a witch's familiar. There were numerous accounts of Boye's abilities; some suggested that he was the Devil in disguise.

Boye is a Danish surname. Notable people with the surname include:
