 Where an 89-7 XY wing leads to -7r5c1 stte. Interestingly(?), both XY-wings are
 in the less common rectangle formation.....Of course I may have missed the

				| The 27-5 was a one-stepper for me. However, I was doing it with pencil and paper, where my error rate is very high. I'll accept your solution. |  |
