(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an international standard setting body of representatives of national standards bodies, that produces world-wide industrial and commercial standards.
While the ISO defines itself as an Non-governmental organization, its ability to set standards which often become law through treaties or national standards makes it more powerful than most NGOs, and in practice it acts as a consortium with strong links to governments. Partipants include one standards body from each member country and major corporations.
ISO cooperates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), which is responsible for standardization of electrical equipment.
The organization is usually referred to simply as ISO (pronounced eye-so). It is a common misconception that ISO stands for International Standards Organization, or something similar. ISO is not an acronym; it comes from the Greek word isos, meaning equal. In English its name is International Organization for Standardization, while in French it is called Organisation Internationale de Normalisation; to use an acronym would result in different acronyms in English (IOS) and French (OIN), thus the founders of the organization chose ISO as the universal short form of its name.
ISO standards are numbered, and have a format that contains "ISO 99999:yyyy: Title" where "99999" is the standard number, "yyyy" is the year published, and "Title" describes the subject.

ISO 3166-2 is the second part of the ISO 3166 standard. It was created for coding the names of subdivisions of countries and dependent areas. The purpose of the standard is to establish a worldwide series of short abbreviations for places, for use on package labels, containers and such. Anywhere where a short alphanumeric code can serve to clearly indicate a location in a more convenient and less ambiguous form than the full place name. US readers may wish to consider them as the equivalent of worldwide zip codes. Within the Wikipedia, the codes from the country pages link to the pages for the locations they identify.
Number of entries
Around 3700.
Format
ISO 3166-2 codes consist of two parts, separated by "-". The first part is the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code element, the second is alphabetic or numeric and has one, two or three digits. The second part often is based on national standards.

Decoding / Encoding lists
To find the ISO 3166-2 codes for each country see ISO 3166-1, a list of countries. If you are familiar with the two-letter country codes (similiar to internet country codes) you can also use the format matrix given below.Both ways would lead to articles like ISO 3166-2:XX, where XX stands for the ISO 3166-1 code, e.g. ISO 3166-2:AU leads to the code list for Australia.

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Isotopes of a chemical element are atoms whose nuclei have the same atomic number, Z, but different atomic weights, A. The word isotope, meaning at the same place, comes from the fact that isotopes are located at the same place on the periodic table.
The atomic number corresponds to the number of protons in an atom. Thus, isotopes of a particular element contain the same number of protons. The difference in atomic weights results from differences in the number of neutrons in the atomic nuclei. In scientific nomenclature, isotopes are specified by the name of the particular element followed by a hyphen and the number of nucleons (protons and neutrons) in the atomic nucleus (e.g., iron-57, uranium-238, helium-3). In symbolic form, the number of nucleons is denoted as a superscripted prefix to the chemical symbol (e.g., 57Fe, 238U, 3He).
Collectively, the isotopes of the elements form the set of nuclides. A nuclide is a particular type of nucleus (characterised by A and Z). Strictly speaking, we should say that an element such as fluorine consists of one nuclide rather than that it has one isotope. Similarly, the tables at the foot of this article are tables of nuclides.
In a neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons. Thus, isotopes of a given element also have the same number of electrons and the same electronic structure. Because the chemical behavior of an atom is largely determined by its electronic structure, isotopes exhibit nearly identical chemical behavior. The primary exception is that, due to their larger masses, heavier isotopes tend to react somewhat more slowly than lighter isotopes of the same element. This "mass effect" is most pronounced for hydrogen and deuterium (the common name of 2H), because deuterium has twice the mass of hydrogen. For heavier elements the relative mass difference between isotopes is much less, and the mass effect is usually negligible.
Although isotopes exhibit nearly identical electronic and chemical behavior, their nuclear behavior varies dramatically. Atomic nuclei consist of protons and neutrons bound together by the strong nuclear force. Because protons are positively charged, they repel each other. Neutrons, which are electrically neutral, allow some separation between the positively charged protons, reducing the electrostatic repulsion and stabilizing the nucleus. For this reason neutrons are necessary for two or more protons to be bound into a nucleus. As the number of protons increases, additional neutrons are needed to form a stable nucleus, for example, although the neutron/proton ratio of 3He is 1/2, the neutron/proton ratio of 238U is >3/2. However, if too many neutrons are present, the nucleus becomes unstable.
Because isotopes of a given element have different numbers of neutrons they also have different neutron/proton ratios. This affects the nuclear stability, with the result that some isotopes are subject to nuclear decay. The decay of these radioactive isotopes (radioisotopes for short) is an important topic in nuclear physics. By studying the manner in which this decay occurs, physicists gain insight into the properties of the atomic nucleus.
In general, several isotopes of each element can be found in nature. Stable isotopes are by far the most abundundant; however, significant quantities of long-lived unstable isotopes, such as uranium-238, can also be found. Small amounts of short-lived radioactive isotopes are also present in nature. These arise as products of the decay of larger long-lived radioactive nuclei. The atomic mass for an element in the periodic table is the average of the natural abundance of the isotopes of that element.
This part probably needs correction and refinement: The distribution of the various isotopes on earth is ultimately the result of the initial product distribution of atoms generated in stars and supernovae during the creation of the solar system and the subsequent decay patterns of the heavier nuclei. Someone with some knowledge on the subject could also add more about creative processes in the universe
Applications of isotopes
Several applications exist that capitilize on properties of the various isotopes of a given element. One of the most common applications is as a tracer or marker in a technique called isotopic labeling. Normally, atoms of a given element are indistinguishable from each other. However, by using isotopes of different masses, they can be distinguished by mass spectroscopy or infrared spectroscopy, which is mass sensitive because heavier atoms vibrate at different frequencies than lighter atoms.
An example of the use of isotopic labeling is the study of phenol (C6H5OH) in water. Upon adding phenol to deuterated water (water containing D2O in addition to the usual H2O), researchers observed the substition of deuterium for the hydrogen in the hydroxyl group (C6H5OD), indicating that phenol readily undergoes hydrogen-exchange reactions with water. Only the hydroxyl group was affected, indicating that the other 5 hydrogen atoms did not participate in these exchange reactions.
In addition to isotopic labeling, several forms of spectroscopy rely on the unique nuclear properties of specific isotopes. For example, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy can be used only for isotopes with a nonzero nuclear spin. The most common isotopes used with NMR spectroscipy are 1H, 2D, 13C, and 31P. Mossbauer spectroscopy also relies on the nuclear transitions of specific isotopes, such as 57Fe.
Radioactive isotopes also have important uses. Nuclear power and nuclear weapons development require relatively large quantities of specific isotopes. The process of isotope separation represents a significant technological challenge.
Radioisotopes are also frequently used in medicine, biochemistry, and chemistry as tracers. Small quantities of the radioisotopes can be readily detected due to characteristic emissions by the decaying nuclei.
