I'm trying to code a script for Github's Hubot that uses TooTallNate's Node-Spotify-Web to play music through spotify, and I'm somewhat new to CoffeeScript (What Hubot scripts are written in). I wrote out the first command "Play" here:
lame = require('lame')
Speaker = require('speaker')
Spotify = require('spotify-web')
username = "INSERTUSERNAMEHERE"
password = "INSERTPASSWORDHERE"
robot.respond /play (.*)/i, (message) ->
uri = message.match[1]
Spotify.login(username, password, function (err, spotify)) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log('Playing: %s - %s', track.artist[0].name, track.name)
spotify.get(uri, function(err, track){
if err throw err;
message.send("Playing:" + track.artist[0].name, track.name)
Upon running bin/hubot I got the Error "Syntax Error, Reserved word "function" so I said, ok and changed 'function' to '->' as recommend in another StackOverflow question. Making it so it appeared as:
But still get the error
ERROR Unable to load /home/xbmc/cbot/lisa/scripts/spotify: SyntaxError: reserved word "function"
Is it because of the dependencies? I'm really stuck here.

AURAS Shagon' ARC-118 CPU Cooler Review - Accessories and DocumentationAURAS Technologies spawns a retail company and CPU cooler. Allow me to introduce Shagon' and the ARC-118 CPU cooler.
Accessories and Documentation
All of your hardware comes shipped inside of a zip close bag. In there you will find the Intel mounts, the AMD mounts inside of those, and the screws for mounting them in the middle. Just below the screws are four risers for the back plate, and the large thumbscrews at the top are to mount the cooler to the risers in the back plate. Both AMD and Intel use the same mounting components except for the specific legs.
Also in the kit is this universal back plate. Choose the correct mounting holes and install the risers to hold it to the motherboard. The plate itself is both padded as well as plastic coated to keep short circuits at bay and the padding protects from the accidental loss of tiny components on the back of the motherboard. To the left is a packet of SIL, silicon thermal compound.
The instructions I received were in English only, so I assume these will ship region specific, so that they can cover their whole market. The instructions are simple and easy to follow, and the renderings will help explain the text if you still have questions. For both AMD an Intel the cooler is just as easy to install and get the ARC-118 into use.
Inside the box as soon as I opened it I was greeted with this warranty card. Shagon' offer you a one year limited warranty on the ARC-118 against defect, and will either fix or replace your cooler within this term if the damage is not caused by the user. The bottom of each card holds a specific serial number for each cooler. I would assume you may be asked for this if you need to make a warranty claim.

E-mail volume from e-retailers rose 16% last year, but dirty data bedevils communication.
Do you give your e-mail contact database a good and regular scrubbing? Four out of five U.S. companies say they have a documented data quality strategy, but 89% of them still suspect that their customer data may be inaccurate, according to Experian QAS, a vendor of software and services that help companies keep contact data up to date.
Respondents to an Experian QAS survey suspect that as much as 24% of their total records may have errors, which 26% of total respondents say lead to the loss of potential customers. Moreover, 30% say they feel that those errors may have negatively impacted customer perceptions of their company.
In 2010, online retailers sent an average of 152 e-mail marketing messages to each consumer who signed up to receive e-mail, up 16% from 2009, according to Responsys, an e-mail marketing services vendor. Higher e-mail volume may only increases the money being wasted by sending messages to wrong or outdated addresses. According to the Experian survey, respondents say they waste an average of 15% of their communication budgets due to bad data.
73% of U.S. businesses use at least one manual approach to scrubbing contact data, such as analyzing contact information on spreadsheets or sorting through e-mail messages that bounce. The Experian research shows, however, that companies are improving their methods, such as by contracting with outside vendors to help them clean up customer information. The firm says 81% of U.S. organizations have upgraded their data management systems in the last two years.
Experian surveyed 1,320 representatives from retail, finance, government, manufacturing, education, utilities and travel industries in December.

There are a lot of firsts still to come as it relates to women fighting in the Octagon, but another milestone toppled when the UFC announced its first women's match-up for one of its fight cards in England.
French-born Brit Rosi Sexton will square off with Brazilian youngster Jessica Andrade at UFC Fight Night 30: Bisping vs. Munoz on Oct. 26 in Manchester, England.
Michael Bisping squares off with fellow middleweight contender Mark Munoz in the night's main event at Phones 4u Arena.
Sexton and Andrade have each already fought for the UFC, but neither was successful. Sexton (13-3) lost in her debut bout against Alexis Davis at UFC 161 in Canada, while Liz Carmouche stopped Andrade (9-3) at UFC on Fox 8 in Seattle.
This is a pivotal bout for both women, but perhaps more so for Sexton. At 36 years of age, her window of opportunity is considerably narrower than that of her 21-year-old opponent. The majority of Sexton's career – she began fighting professionally in 2002 – has occurred prior to Andrade beginning her career in 2011.
The fight with Andrade also marks the first time that Sexton gets to fight in her hometown of Manchester.

Jim Leyland won't be removing Miguel Cabrera from games for defensive purposes
Mar 13, 2012, 10:15 AM EDT
Publicly at least the Tigers have been saying good things about Miguel Cabrera's transition back to third base this spring and yesterday manager Jim Leyland took it a step further by reiterating that Cabrera will not be removed from regular season games in the late innings for a better defender.
"He's the third baseman," Leyland told Jason Beck of MLB.com. "That's the way it is and I'm not 'defensing' for him. I've seen that too many times."
Leyland is referring to the times when an excellent hitter is removed from the game for a better defender only to have his lineup spot come to the plate again in a key spot, which is most often an issue during the playoffs when over-managing is far more common.
Leyland sounds very committed to not taking Cabrera out of games defensively, but he'll be tempted on a daily basis thanks to Brandon Inge and/or Ramon Santiago likely being on the bench most games.
- Lou Dylan - Mar 13, 2012 at 10:32 AM
Actually, taking Prince out and shifting Miggy to 1st makes more sense than just replacing Miggy at 3rd. But, they probably won't do that either.
- sabathiawouldbegoodattheeighthtoo - Mar 13, 2012 at 11:50 AM
But that leaves the same potential problem if Fielder's lineup spot comes up to bat again.
- Lou Dylan - Mar 13, 2012 at 12:00 PM
I didn't say it didn't. Just think it's interesting how the "defensive replacement" talk is all about benching Cabrera, when he should actually stay in the game and move to 1st in any defensive replacement strategy.
- 78mu - Mar 13, 2012 at 10:53 AM
If he does leave him in I bet the shortstop will be positioned close enough to shake hands with Miggy.
- lionsplayoffs - Mar 13, 2012 at 11:58 AM
That would be a great strategy if we had Jose Reyes. Peralta runs like he's dragging a piano, so he can't play tight to Miggy like that.

WASHINGTON, April 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics, a global technology leader in consumer electronics and home appliances, has been recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with a 2014 ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year-Sustained Excellence Award, the highest distinction bestowed upon ENERGY STAR partners. LG also is being honored with the inaugural 2014 ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year-Climate Communications Award.
According to the EPA, LG is being recognized as ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year for its continued leadership in protecting the environment by manufacturing and promoting products with superior energy efficiency as well as educating consumers on the important, positive effects that energy-efficient behaviors can have on the environment.
For example, in the past year American consumers purchased more than 1.6 million LG products awarded the "ENERGY STAR Most Efficient 2013" distinction, which helps consumers easily identify the most efficient products among those that have earned the ENERGY STAR label. LG increased the number of Most Efficient models available by 55 percent in 2013 from 2012 and increased its percentage of total sales dollars that were ENERGY STAR qualified by more than 13 percent from 2012.
LG also expanded its programs designed to change consumer behaviors. In 2013, the company generated more than 2 billion consumer impressions by stepping up its nationwide public education and community outreach campaign. Key to this effort was LG's industry-leading support of "Team ENERGY STAR," a multi-year initiative from EPA's ENERGY STAR program that involves kids in helping their families save energy and money at home, while teaching them how energy efficiency is good for the environment. The company worked with EPA and PTO Today to award a total of 50 prizes (primarily LG ENERGY STAR certified products) to families who participated in the campaign.
"As a long-time ENERGY STAR partner, LG is extremely proud to be recognized by the EPA for our ongoing leadership and long-term commitment to energy efficiency through both the ENERGY STAR Sustained Excellence and Climate Communications awards," said William Cho, president and CEO of LG Electronics USA. "LG works to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help fight climate change by bringing energy-efficient products to the market as quickly as possible and by teaching consumers simple actions they can take to protect the environment."
Across the United States, top companies and organizations are leading the way toward a more energy-efficient future through their participation in ENERGY STAR. Through 2013, with help from ENERGY STAR, American families and businesses have saved $297 billion on utility bills and prevented more than 2.1 billion metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions.
"LG has earned EPA's highest ENERGY STAR award – the 2014 Partner of the Year- Sustained Excellence Award – because of its unwavering commitment to helping consumers become increasingly more energy efficient," said EPA Deputy Administrator Bob Perciasepe. "By using innovative marketing and communications, LG is helping to raise the public's awareness of climate change. An informed public can make smarter choices about the purchases they make and the impact that they have on the environment and our changing climate."
The 2014 Partner of the Year-Sustained Excellence Awards are given to organizations to recognize their contributions to reducing greenhouse gas emissions through superior energy efficiency. These winners have reduced greenhouse gas emissions by setting and achieving aggressive goals and by employing innovative energy efficiency approaches. These awards recognize ongoing leadership across the ENERGY STAR program, including energy-efficient products, services, new homes, and buildings in the commercial, industrial, and public sectors.
LG and other 2014 award winners are selected from the 16,000 organizations that participate in the ENERGY STAR program. In addition to its Sustained Excellence recognition in 2014, LG is one of only 10 ENERGY STAR Partners to receive the Climate Communications Award, a new award for 2014 that honors outstanding efforts to raise its customers' awareness about climate change.
LG Electronics' accomplishments will be recognized at an awards ceremony in Washington, D.C. on April 29.

O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm.

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."
- St. John Paul II

For your consideration…
"One of the most dangerous errors is that civilization is automatically bound to increase and spread. The lesson of history is the opposite; civilization is a rarity, attained with difficulty and easily lost. The normal state of humanity is barbarism, just as the normal surface of the planet is salt water. Land looms large in our imagination and civilization in history books, only because sea and savagery are to us less interesting."
- C.S. Lewis

Sacramento Kings 2013 Player Profile: Ben McLemore
With the seventh pick in the NBA Draft, the Sacramento Kings selected Ben McLemore. He is a 6-foot-5 shooting guard out of the University of Kansas, where he was a Second-Team All-American last season. Even though he was in college for two years, he was only allowed to play one season due to academic issues that deemed him ineligible to play. During his redshirt freshman year, McLemore averaged 16.4 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists, and was named a finalist for the John R. Wooden Award.
The Kings are currently rebuilding, something that they've seemingly been doing since 2007. They have had a lot of lottery picks in recent years and have managed to waste most of them. They have spent early picks on busts like Jimmer Fredette, Spencer Hawes, Jason Thompson and Thomas Robinson. The two draft picks that have actually worked out are DeMarcus Cousins and Tyreke Evans, who they recently traded away as a restricted free agent.
The trade of Evans left a hole at the shooting guard spot, which McLemore should be able to seize from Marcus Thornton by the opening game of the season.
McLemore has an excellent jump shot and very solid range. He is athletic and will be used a lot coming off of screens to catch and shoot. He is very good at getting his feet set and shoulders squared while in motion, which will make him a very versatile scorer in a Rip Hamilton mold.
Defensively, he is athletic and quick enough to cover point guards, and he is long enough to cover shooting guards. While McLemore played some point guard in college, his game doesn't translate to that position on an NBA level. He struggles to create shots for himself off the dribble, and has yet to develop a left-handed drive and finish.
Defenders will overplay his right hand and force him left, which will create a lot of turnovers and uncomfortable possessions for him if he's forced to play the point. He also struggles with contact around the rim, which forces him to shoot more floaters rather than going up strong and drawing continuations and earning 3-point plays.
The starting lineup for the Kings should see Greivis Vasquez, McLemore, John Salmons, Jason Thompson and DeMarcus Cousins. McLemore, by default, becomes the best shooter in the lineup and second-best player on the team. I expect him to have more opportunities to succeed than any rookie in the NBA this year. They aren't expected to win many games, and all that they care about this season is growth from McLemore and Cousins and to try and get some production from fellow rookie Ray McCallum Jr.
Marcus Thornton can slide back into his role as a scorer off the bench, and Jimmer Fredette can invest in a lot of suits this year.
I think McLemore will average between 13 and 16 points per game, but will struggle with his assist to turnover ratio. It's like that he will have very rough outings against physical defenders. He will put up a low shooting percentage in his rookie year, but it will steadily improve after the All-Star break when he becomes used to the speed of an NBA game. I predict him to make the First-Team All-NBA Rookie Team and get a few votes for the Rookie of the Year award.

Anheuser-Busch, GE Form Alliance to Cut CO2, Water
Anheuser-Busch InBev and GE have formed a strategic alliance that they expect to cut 100,000 tons of CO2 emissions a year from AB InBev plants across China.
The initiative will also develop solutions to improve energy efficiency and cut water consumption. The agreement formed part of $3 billion in new customer agreements that GE Energy announced yesterday, including waste-heat recovery, wind power and water treatment projects.
AB InBev and GE engineering resources will establish an "Innovation Team" to understand AB InBev's processes and challenges. The partners will aim to define clear solutions that can be implemented and piloted in designated AB InBev locations, and later expanded to existing and planned facilities across China.
The partnership will initially focus on designing and implementing several key solutions, including:
- Energy management solutions that use advanced software systems to provide insight into the level of energy and water used, enabling visibility into potential energy and water losses, while allowing for a better understanding of where improvements can be made.
- Combined heat and power solutions that use gas engines, creating electricity via either biogas or natural gas. These engines can achieve efficiency levels of 70 to 90 percent, GE says, vastly lowering consumption.
- "Waste-to-value solutions" that will enable efficient use of water and energy normally left over from the manufacturing process.
AB InBev announced its three-year environmental performance targets in April 2010. The company aims to reduce its water-to-beer ratio to 3.5, reduce energy usage and CO2 output, and lower reliance on traditional energy sources via the use of biogas and natural gas. Last year, AB InBev China reduced water consumption by 20.7 percent, carbon emissions by 20 percent and energy consumption by 13.19 percent.
An ongoing project at AB InBev project's Chinese flagship factory is using recycled water from one of its plants to support local public housing, in an initiative that the company is considering for a wider roll-out. Since March, the plant in Hanyang, a district of Wuhan, has been treating 4,000 tons of production water a day and supplying 1,000 to the community. The water is supplying at least 2,400 families living in Huiminyuan, Hanyang's biggest government-subsidized housing development, where it is used for washrooms, landscaping and fire fighting.
In 2010, GE announced a plan to invest more than $2 billion in R&D, technology and financial service partnerships in China by 2012.

The board receives regular updates from our development team, and our last report indicated we are still making progress and on track with respect to the timeline. There is no additional information we can provide at this time.
Our facilities committee and developers are hard at work on Envision's permanent site and facility project. The team has held numerous meetings in the past several months to refine the conceptual building program, which determines the number, types, and sizes of the spaces in the new building. Concurrently, over 40 potential building sites have been and are being considered and evaluated. These properties have been evaluated in the areas of cost, location, ingress/egress, usability/feasibility, traffic impact, environmental requirements, etc. While progress has been good, the identification of the best alternatives is extremely complex and requires multifaceted considerations and sensitivities. More updates will follow as choices are solidified and can be publicized.

Brandeis Sued to Block Sale of Any Art
July 28, 2009
Three members of the board of the Rose Art Museum of Brandeis University are suing the university to block any plans to sell its world-class art collection, valued in the hundreds of millions of dollars, The Wall Street Journal reported. Plans by Brandeis to sell the collection set off widespread protests by artists and scholars, at Brandeis and elsewhere. The university says it is re-evaluating its plans, but many supporters of the museum are dubious. A lawyer for Brandeis told the Journal that the lawsuit was "frivolous and without merit" and that the university "has taken aggressive steps to protect its core educational mission."

Top Ten Reasons Why Business Should Love a Carbon Price
With the USA (at a Federal level) going down the regulatory route instead, the Australian Prime Minister touring the world arguing against it and the UNFCCC struggling to talk about it, perhaps it is time to revisit the case for carbon pricing. Economists have argued the case for carbon pricing for over two decades and in a recent post I put forward my own reasons why the climate issue doesn't get solved without one. Remember this;
Yet the policy world seems to be struggling to implement carbon pricing and more importantly, getting it to stick and remain effective. Part of the reason for this is a concern by business that it will somehow penalize them, prejudice them competitively or distort their markets. Of course there will be an impact, that's the whole point, but nevertheless the business community should still embrace this approach to dealing with emissions. Here are the top ten reasons why;
- Action on climate in some form or other is an inconvenient but unavoidable inevitability. Business and industry doesn't really want direct, standards based regulation. These can be difficult to deal with, offer limited flexibility for compliance and may be very costly to implement for some legacy facilities.
- Carbon pricing, either through taxation or cap and trade offers broad compliance flexibility and provides the option for particular facilities to avoid the need for immediate capital investment (but still comply with the requirement).
- Carbon pricing offers technology neutrality. Business and industry is free to choose its path forward rather than being forced down a particular route or having market share removed by decree.
- Pricing systems offer the government flexibility to address issues such as cross border competition and carbon leakage (e.g. tax rebates or free allocation of allowances). There is a good history around this issue in the EU, with trade exposed industries receiving a large proportion of their allocation for free.
- Carbon pricing is transparent and can be passed through the supply chain, either up to the resource holder or down to the end user.
- A well implemented carbon pricing system ensures even (economic) distribution of the mitigation burden across the economy. This is important and often forgotten. Regulatory approaches are typically opaque when it comes to the cost of implementation, such that the burden on a particular sector may be far greater than initially recognized. A carbon trading system avoids such distortions by allowing a particular sector to buy allowances instead of taking expensive (for them) mitigation actions.
- Carbon pricing offers the lowest cost pathway for compliance across the economy, which also minimizes the burden on industry.
- Carbon pricing allows the fossil fuel industry to develop carbon capture and storage, a societal "must have" over the longer term if the climate issue is going to be fully resolved. Further, as the carbon pricing system is bringing in new revenue to government (e.g. through the sale of allowances), the opportunity exists to utilize this to support the early stage development of technologies such as CCS.
- Carbon pricing encourages fuel switching in the power sector in particular, initially from coal to natural gas, but then to zero carbon alternatives such as wind, solar and nuclear.
- And the most important reason;
It's the smart business based approach to a really tough problem and actually delivers on the environmental objective.

David Newell says:
A carbon price gives a methodology of asessing the potential utility of a remediation effort, which communicates a reality in easier to understand terms.
For instance, the methodology referenced at WWW.EarthThrive.Net, although expensive to deploy,
(WAG estimate of $50 B)
will capture $40 B of CO2 per year, at $20/ tonne.
(And this is at a conservative 10% "capture rate".)
The engineering needed to pump sea water is not trivial by any means, but it is "doable":
and if we DON'T effect direct air capture of some sort on a large basis, relatively SOON:

Hamilton has been "blinded in the headlights" of government inducements to build roads, says a leading city advocate of alternatives to using cars.
Living Streets co-ordinator Judy McDonald says she has significant sympathy for the views of city councillor Dave Macpherson, after he quit the regional transport committee and slated the city's preoccupation with new roads.
"There is an intense frustration with the road-building philosophy that has been adopted in New Zealand over the last few years. The real issue, of course, is it's 'top-down' from the Government, funding is a nightmare.
"The council has gone for this, you can get subsidies to build roads, you can't get subsidies to build anything else. There's a subsidy but you're committing huge amounts of public money still to building roads when perhaps we don't need them, and could be building something else," said Mrs McDonald.
Over the next 10 years the city will spend $9.6 million on cycling, walking and public transport initiatives - by comparison over the next three years $33.6 million will be spent on the showpiece Ring Road project alone.
City transport staff say forecasted traffic volumes suggest that, over the next decade, the city's congestion will only increase. With the Ring Road expected to be the last major piece of roading infrastructure for some time, targets to limit peak-traffic delays are reliant on a shift away from single-occupant commuting towards alternatives such as car pooling and public transport.
While Mrs McDonald applauded the planning that had gone into cycle networks and walking paths in newer suburbs such as Rototuna, the problem lay in retro-fitting older parts of the city to make them accessible and habitable.
Hamilton boasts 948 kilometres of footpaths, compared with 605km of roads, 116km of cycle lanes and 17.4km of shared riverside walk and cycleways.
"Yet again the river path is closed down because of a slip. Expensive to fix, but possibly what we ought to do is bring that path up through town.
"We need to look at alternatives, and find other ways around our problems.
"It's deeply frustrating to someone who feels a different path can be taken.
"A lot of the council planning staff in Hamilton are relatively new English graduates, and one would think they have experience of systems that are rather better. We are heading down the wrong track in New Zealand," she said.
"The roading might be nice to have, perhaps, but we could get a lot more bang for our buck by going for the kind of things done in other cities.
"We seem to be captured by a government policy which is so short-sighted, quite wrong, and I think will lead us into a great deal of trouble when the real petrol hikes start to bite and it's too expensive to maintain our roads."
