java.lang.IllegalStateException: Trying to requery an already closed cursor error

I downloaded an android sqlite project to get me started as I am completely new. So when I run my app it loads perfectly but when I go to load it up again it says it has stopped working. The main error on logcat is

java.lang.RuntmeException: Unable to resume activity(...MainActivity): java.lang.IllegalStateException: Trying to requery an already closed cursor android.database.sqlite.SQLiteCursor@41b80fb0

How can I fix this error? Thank you

Here is the sample code I downloaded: MainActivity.java

package com.example.events;

import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.content.ContentValues;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;

import static android.provider.BaseColumns._ID;
import static com.example.events.Constants.TABLE_NAME;
import static com.example.events.Constants.TIME;
import static com.example.events.Constants.TITLE;


public class MainActivity extends ListActivity {

        events = new EventsData(this);
        try {
        addEvent("Hello, Android!");
        Cursor cursor = getEvents();
         showEvents(cursor);
        } finally {
         events.close();
         }
        }
    private void addEvent(String string) {
        // Insert a new record into the Events data source.
        // You would do something similar for delete and update.
        SQLiteDatabase db = events.getWritableDatabase();
        ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
        values.put(TIME, System.currentTimeMillis());
        values.put(TITLE, string);

        }

    private static String[] FROM = { _ID, TIME, TITLE, };

    // and re-querying the cursor when needed.
    SQLiteDatabase db = events.getReadableDatabase();
    Cursor cursor = db.query(TABLE_NAME, FROM, null, null, null,
    null, ORDER_BY);

    return cursor;
    }
    private static int[] TO = { R.id.rowid, R.id.time, R.id.title, };

        SimpleCursorAdapter adapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this,
                R.layout.item, cursor, FROM, TO);
                setListAdapter(adapter);
        // StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(
        // "Saved events:\n");
        // while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
         // Could use getColumnIndexOrThrow() to get indexes
        // long id = cursor.getLong(0);
        // long time = cursor.getLong(1);
        // String title = cursor.getString(2);
        // builder.append(id).append(": ");
        // builder.append(time).append(": ");
        // builder.append(title).append("\n");
        // }
         // Display on the screen
        // TextView text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text);
        // text.setText(builder);
         }






    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        // Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
        // automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
        // as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
        int id = item.getItemId();
        if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
            return true;
        }
        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
    }
}
