                {
                   writeLog("No Categories applied");
                }
                else
                {
                  writeLog("Categories found!  Size: " + categories.size() + "");
                   for (NodeRef ref : categories)
                   {
                      if (this.nodeService.exists(ref))
                      {
                         category = Repository.getNameForNode(this.nodeService, ref);
                         writeLog("category: " + category);
                         
                         parentCategory = Repository.getNameForNode(this.nodeService, this.nodeService.getPrimaryParent(ref).getParentRef());
                         writeLog("parent: " + parentCategory);
               }
            }
         }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍
