I wonder how Nuage defenders will try to justify or explain away this one. The Serbian perpetrator of genocide, called himself Dragan Dabic and had his own Nuage healing practice and website. The photos might be familiar.
And some of the proverbs he chose as his favorites are pretty chilling, given the meaning they would have for him.

David Charter in Belgrade, Bojan Pancevski, Rory Watson and Adam LeBor
The mysterious old man with the flowing white beard who exuded spirituality and became a celebrated alternative healer went by the name of Dr Dragan David Dabic. Yesterday he was unmasked as one of the world’s most wanted fugitives, living an extraordinary double life in the midst of those seeking him for war crimes.
Radovan Karadzic may have been lionised in folk songs by Serb nationalists for his ability to avoid capture. Not even his most imaginative supporters would have guessed that he was hiding behind a New Age persona, providing a bio-energy boost and “human quantum energy??? for clients in a Belgrade suburb.
Dr Karadzic, 63, the Bosnian Serb leader who had been on the run for nearly 13 years, was in a cell last night preparing to appeal against his extradition to The Hague, where he faces 11 charges, including genocide carried out allegedly on his orders.
There was astonishment when police revealed the true identity of Dr Dabic, and disbelief among those who had been taken in. The distinctive mane of grey hair had been replaced by a snowy beard and glasses. His landlord had no idea who was renting the nondescript high-rise flat in New Belgrade.
“It was a brilliant camouflage,??? said Goran Kojic, the editor-in-chief of a health magazine who knew “Dr Dabic??? and published several of his articles on Serbian Orthodox meditation. “He left such a calm impression of a cultured man of great spirituality. He was funny, entertaining and eloquent, the sort of person you wanted as a friend.
.....Those who knew him as Dr Dabic told The Times that he was regarded as an expert in silence and meditation. One of his lectures was called “The relationship between calmness and meditation???. He also gave lectures on healthy living. During the most recent, visitors were offered free massages, yoga, t’ai chi and lessons in the Brazilian dance capoeira. His website advertises energy healing and beauty treatments and offers to cure conditions ranging from impotence and other “sexual disturbances??? to diabetes, asthma, epilepsy and multiple sclerosis.
Using the name D. D. David, he promoted his David Wellbeing Programme, based on the use of “human quantum energy???. His website says that people are “programmed??? to live to between 120 and 130, an age that could be reached by those who had his treatments. Those who visited his lectures told local media that they were “very good??? and visited by up to 400 participants at a time.....

Captured war crimes suspect Radovan Karadzic spent years living in Belgrade and practising alternative medicine, according to Serb officials.
During a decade on the run, he had cultivated a long white beard and called himself Dragan Dabic, Serbian minister Rasim Ljajic said.
Mr Karadzic, 63, had lived in a "very convincing" way using false papers, he said.
He even gave public lectures and was a regular health magazine contributor.
"He was involved with alternative medicine, earning his money from practising alternative medicine... he was working in a private practice," said Mr Ljajic, the Serbian minister for relations with The Hague war crimes tribunal.....
Karadzic (right) spoke at a number of health seminars as Dragan Dabic...
Masquerading as an expert in human quantum energy, the fugitive was so confident in his disguise he even had his own website, and would give out business cards during alternative medicine lectures.
His card gave his name as D D David, D D apparently standing for his pseudonym Dragan Dabic.
Billed as Dabic, Spiritual Explorer, Mr Karadzic gave lectures comparing meditation and silent techniques practised by Orthodox monks. He spoke in Belgrade in May, and also in the town of Smederevo, east of the capital.
In one lecture programme, he was billed as a "researcher in the fields of psychology and bio-energy".
Goran Kojic, the editor of the Belgrade magazine, Healthy Life, which commissioned work from Mr Karadzic, attested to the credibility of the alleged war criminal's alter-ego.....
Dragan Dabic's business card promoted him as an alternative healer....
