Before MURPHY, MELLOY, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Christopher Dean Baker challenges as unreasonable the twelve month sentence
the district court1 imposed upon revocation of his supervised release. In 2002 Baker
was convicted of conspiracy to manufacture 50 grams or more of methamphetamine
and sentenced to 59 months imprisonment and four years of supervised release. His

the Northern District of Iowa.
supervised release was revoked in April 2007 after three positive drug tests and his
failure to report for drug testing, and the district court imposed a six month revocation
sentence. Within several months after Baker began serving his second term of
supervised release on October 16, 2007, he had three positive drug tests, provided two
diluted urine samples, and consumed alcohol, all in violation of the terms of his
release. As a result, the court modified his term of supervised release on April 30,
2008 and sentenced him to serve 120 days at a residential treatment center. At the
center he tested positive for drug use three more times and admitted lying to his
probation officer regarding his drug use. Another revocation hearing was held and the
district court revoked his supervised release on July 10, 2008.

       The district court imposed a twelve month sentence after concluding that
community treatment and graduated sanctions had been ineffective at curbing Baker's
drug use and that his propensity to lie to his probation officer and his noncompliance
with residential treatment center policies indicated that future community treatment
options would not work. Baker points out that the advisory guideline range was three
to nine months and argues that twelve months is an unreasonable sentence given that
his violations were low grade, he was no longer involved with methamphetamine, he
had maintained full time employment, and he regularly paid child support.

       We review challenges to the reasonableness of a revocation sentence under an
abuse of discretion standard. See United States v. Cotton, 

, 916 (8th Cir.
2005). In addition to the advisory sentencing range, the district court is to consider
the factors listed in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), such as "deterrence, incapacitation, and
rehabilitation; [and] the pertinent circumstances of the individual case." 

Appellant bears the burden of showing that the sentence imposed is
unreasonable. United States v. Milk, 

, 603 (8th Cir. 2006).

      Baker has not shown that the district court abused its discretion. This was the
second time his supervised release was revoked, and the six month sentence imposed

                                          -2-
on his first revocation had not deterred him from additional violations. The record
indicates that the district court considered the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors and the
cumulative significance of Baker's violations and that it imposed a reasonable
sentence under all the circumstances.

      Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed.
