Crawling LinkedIn while authenticated with Scrapy

So I've read through the Crawling with an authenticated session in Scrapy and I am getting hung up, I am 99% sure that my parse code is correct, I just don't believe the login is redirecting and being successful.

I also am having an issue with the check_login_response() not sure what page it is checking.. Though "Sign Out" would make sense.

    def init_request(self):
        #"""This function is called before crawling starts."""
        return Request(url=self.login_page, callback=self.login)

    def login(self, response):
        #"""Generate a login request."""
        return FormRequest.from_response(response,
                    formdata={'session_key': 'user@email.com', 'session_password': 'somepassword'},
                    callback=self.check_login_response)

    def check_login_response(self, response):
        #"""Check the response returned by a login request to see if we aresuccessfully logged in."""
        if "Sign Out" in response.body:
            self.log("\n\n\nSuccessfully logged in. Let's start crawling!\n\n\n")
            # Now the crawling can begin..

            return self.initialized() # ****THIS LINE FIXED THE LAST PROBLEM*****

        else:
            self.log("\n\n\nFailed, Bad times :(\n\n\n")
            # Something went wrong, we couldn't log in, so nothing happens.

    def parse(self, response):
        self.log("\n\n\n We got data! \n\n\n")
        hxs = HtmlXPathSelector(response)
        sites = hxs.select('//ol[@id=\'result-set\']/li')
        items = []
        for site in sites:
            item = LinkedPyItem()
            item['title'] = site.select('h2/a/text()').extract()
            item['link'] = site.select('h2/a/@href').extract()
            items.append(item)
        return items

The issue was resolved by adding 'Return' in front of self.initialized()

Thanks Again! -Mark
