Happy 51st

  • Killer cages
  • Kropki dots
  • Thermometers
  • Palindromes

The brief

Normal sudoku rules apply. The grey line ("5") is a palindrome that reads the same in both directions. Digits along the thermometer ("1") must increase from the bulb end. Digits in cages sum to 13; negative constraint applies -- no unmarked dominoes sum to 13. Digits separated by a white dot differ by 1 (not all dots are shown).
