Mr UpsideDown, I've been looking for an answer to this question for weeks, and there is a very good solution that surprisingly I didn't find anywhere else.

No other solution worked as good and as fast as the above, other solutions on the web made the query take 15-20 seconds, which obviously isn't good.
