				| Using just VH moves there's a 12-6 XY Wing with pivot at r4c1 (-6r6c45) which then opens up a 26-1 XY Wing with pivot at r7c1 (as well as another 12-6 XY Wing with pivot at r4c1) which solves it. |

				| Another way to represent Tom's neat solution would be the following chain with pincers on both ends.  1r5c3 = r3c3 - r1c2 = r1c5 => r5c5 <> 1. |
