StaleDataException with dialog

I am trying to show a dialog with a listview with names from my database but I keep getting a StaleDataException. I know that usually means I am trying to use data from a closed cursor but the cursor does not close until I get all the data so I dont understand why I am getting this

d = new Dialog(this);
d.setContentView(R.layout.dialog_layout);
d.setTitle("Select Bowler");

ListView lv = (ListView)d.findViewById(R.id.dialog_list);
Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(
    BowlersDB.CONTENT_URI,
    new String[] {
        BowlersDB.ID, BowlersDB.FIRST_NAME, BowlersDB.LAST_NAME
    },
    null,
    null,
    BowlersDB.LAST_NAME + " COLLATE LOCALIZED ASC"
);

if (c.moveToFirst() && c != null) {
    SimpleCursorAdapter adapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(
        this,
        R.layout.names_listview,
        c,
        new String[] {
            BowlersDB.FIRST_NAME, BowlersDB.LAST_NAME
        },
        new int[] {
            R.id.bListTextView, R.id.bListTextView2
        },
        0
    );
    lv.setAdapter(adapter);
    lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View v, int position, long id) {
            bowlerClickedID = id;
            updateName(id);
        }
    });
    d.show();
}
c.close();

error

EDIT: If I comment out the c.close() line it works fine but I cant just leave the cursor open though so what do I do?

You cannot close the cursor until CursorAdapter is no longer needed. So you can close it in onDestroy() method:

@Override
public void onDestroy() {
 super.onDestroy();

 ListView lv = (ListView) d.findViewById(R.id.dialog_list);
 ((CursorAdapter) lv.getAdapter()).getCursor().close();
 database.close();
}
