// create the scribe request to the Twitter API URL - 'update my status' in this case

org.scribe.model.OAuthRequest request = new org.scribe.model.OAuthRequest(org.scribe.model.Verb.POST, "http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/update.xml");

//add the status to the body you want to tweet

request.addBodyParameter("status", status);

//re-generate the access token and use it to sign the request (the final step before sending anything 'oauth secured)

org.scribe.model.Token accessToken= new org.scribe.model.Token(oauth_key, oauth_secret);

service.signRequest(accessToken, request);

//actually invoke the twitter api

org.scribe.model.Response response = request.send();
