Difference between all nursing-degree\'s in the US

Hi! I'm from Belgium.
Can anyone tell me the difference between RN,LPN,BSN,ASN,...-nurses? What does it mean in practice, are there things that they are or aren't allowed to do.

In Belgium there are two kinds of nurses: A1 and A2. But in practice they both do (and are allowed to do) the same. Except that the salary of A2-nurses is lower.
