Please help optimizing a long running query (left outer join, with 2 derived tables)?

Subselects are usually the quickest way to a slow query. I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to do, but you could select the BN from pdata with the FPE with the following query.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
