We present results from a decade of Chandra observations of the nucleus in the nearest radio-loud AGN, Centaurus A. We use Chandra's exquisite spatial resolution to separate the unresolved nucleus from emission associated with the jet, gas, and X-ray binaries, thereby allowing us to probe variability on scales less than the Bondi radius. We search for variability in the absorbing column and power-law emission, and interpret our results in the context of AGN unification models.
