PER CURIAM:

          Jimi Santana Bonner appeals the district court’s order

revoking his supervised release and imposing a six-month term of

imprisonment and an additional one-year term of supervised release.

Because we find no merit to Bonner’s argument on appeal, we affirm.

          Bonner asserts, as he did before the district court, that

the Supreme Court’s decision in Blakely v. Washington, 

(2004), invalidated the entire Sentencing Reform Act and

therefore the district court did not have authority to impose or

revoke any term of supervised release. In United States v. Booker,

(2005), the Supreme Court applied the Blakely

decision to the federal sentencing guidelines and concluded that

the Sixth Amendment is violated when a district court imposes a

sentence under the Sentencing Guidelines that is greater than a

sentence based solely upon facts found by the jury.   Booker, 125 S.

Ct. at 752-56.   Rather than totally invalidating the Guidelines,

however, the Court held that the Guidelines are no longer binding

on the district courts, but are advisory only.   To effectuate this

remedy, the Court severed two provisions of the Sentencing Reform

Act (18 U.S.C. § 3553(b)(1), requiring sentencing courts to impose

a sentence within the guideline range, and 18 U.S.C. § 3742(e),

setting forth standards of review on appeal).    Sentencing courts

are now required to consider the applicable guideline range, but




                              - 2 -
may     “tailor     the     sentence     in     light      of   other     statutory

concerns . . . .”         

.

               We conclude that Booker provides Bonner no grounds for

relief.     First, contrary to Bonner’s argument, the Supreme Court

did not totally invalidate the Sentencing Reform Act, but in fact

left the great majority of the Act’s provisions intact and legally

effective.       

(“The remainder of the Act

‘function[s] independently.’”).           More specifically, the provision

of the Act that governs supervised release, 18 U.S.C.A. § 3583

(West 2000 & Supp. 2004), was not affected by Booker.                   

-68.         Finally, the change effected by Booker--making

the Sentencing Guidelines merely advisory--was not a change in the

manner in which the Guidelines were applied to revocations of

supervised release pre-Booker. See United States v. Davis, 

, 642 (4th Cir. 1995) (“Chapter 7’s policy statements are now

and have always been non-binding, advisory guides to district

courts in supervised release revocation proceedings.”).

               We accordingly affirm the order of the district court

revoking Bonner’s supervised release and imposing a term of six

months of imprisonment. We dispense with oral argument because the

facts    and    legal     contentions   are     adequately      presented    in   the

materials      before     the   court   and     argument    would   not     aid   the

decisional process.

                                                                            AFFIRMED


                                        - 3 -
