Querying an array of objects

Anyone have guidance on how to query an array of hashes in coffeescript?

For example, I have an array of hashes, each with a "name" and "setting":

[
  {"name":"color", "setting":"red"},
  {"name":"scale_min", "setting":"15"},
  {"name":"scale_type", "setting":"linear"},
  {"name":"x_axis_label", "setting":"Weeks"}
]

I want to find the element in this array where the hash "name" is "x_axis_label"

How can I easily do that with coffeescript?

I need some kind of value_for_key_in_object(key, object) function and figured if would be part of the lexicon...
