The issue is due to the malformed source list of the CDEmu PPA. Run the following command to rename the source list of teh PPA and then open software center or update manager:

sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cdemu-ppa-precise.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cdemu-ppa-precise.list.bak

Also seems that CDEmu has dropped the support for Ubuntu 12.04, so you can remove the source list of CDEmu if you want.
