     Here's the puzzle I entered into Logic Showcase #25 (Ubniqu Tilings). The theme for this showcase was to use a non-square grid tiling.      Shade some groups of three edge-connected cells such that the remaining unshaded cells form one edge-connected area, and the following rules from each genre are satisfied in their respective sextants:      Norinori (Top left):      Each region must contain exactly three shaded cells. The grey cells are not part of a region and may contain any number of shaded cells.      Hitori (Top center):      No two cells containing the same letter which see each other in a straight line along any of the three axes may both be unshaded.      Heyawake (Top right):      Numbered regions must contain the indicated amount of shaded cells. A straight line of consecutive unshaded cells along any of the three axes may not cross more than one bold...

Clues cannot be shaded, and represent the total number of unshaded cells that can be seen in a straight line vertically or horizontally, including itself.  A line of consecutive unshaded cells may not cross more than one bold border.
