  We propose a simple unifying structure for the inner regions of quasars and
AGN. This empirically derived model links together the BALs, the narrow
UV/X-ray ionized absorbers, the BELR, and the Compton scattering/fluorescing
regions into a single structure. The model also suggests an origin for the
large-scale bi-conical outflows. Some other potential implications of this
structure are discussed.
