If PLUGINS is a hash, then you probably want to do something like:

   PLUGINS.each {|key, value| ... }

But the main problem is that you're using a variable name as a method
name, and apparently there's no such method. So the solution will
depend on exactly what method you're really trying to run. What
exactly is in the hash?
