I don't have a very technical answer for that but I know that nearly all investment services logos are blue. People associate blue with security.

There is a commercial with people wearing those.  I think it is just computer graphics--they don't really exist.

All of the squid lures I have seed with one exception were red and white in a spiral barber pole pattern. The only other one was international orange and may have been that color for display only. Now if you are talking about lures that look like squid they come in all colors  yellow, green, blue, red, grey, silver, gold and each of these colors with metal flake, which makes them sparkle. Many sizes too.      Good Luck fishing !!

They do it to make it look tidy and fancy. It is supposed to add to the ambiance.

Because that is the color of the National Team, called "Azzurri".\nThat is an historical tradition: before the creation of the Italian Republic, the Italian Regal Family (Savoia) had color "azzurro" (kind of blue) in their flag and that color was adopted by the soccer National Team to respect the Regal tradition.\nSince then the color has been kept in the Italian shirt, even though it is not a color present in their National flag.

Before the 1700s, in addition to cutting hair, barbers throughout Europe pulled teeth, performed minor surgery, and practiced bloodletting. During bloodletting, patients squeezed a pole to allow their blood to flow more freely. The pole was often painted red to mask bloodstains. At the end of the operation the pole was wrapped in the white bandages used during the operation and put outside the shop to air. As a result, a red-and-white pole became associated with barbershops and barber guilds adopted it as their trademark.

There are a number of organisations that are responsible for categorising colours and forcasting future colours, e.g The Color Association of the United States, The Color Marketing Group, and The Pantone Institute.\n\nSince the make up names for the colours, the last colour discovered is a moving target. It's difficult to decide what the last one is without access to their new colour guides.

isn't it a garment worn with a suit?  I guess if you cut yourself shaving (before work for example) and blood gets on the tie, then I guess you can call it 'blood ties'

The symbols of coils, spirals or a serpent with divine healing powers is often used to explain the ki. A great modern example is the cadacus, a staff with wings and two coiled serpants spiraling up around it. It is the symbol of the medical profession in the western world.  It represents the Life Force, and comes from Eastern religion.

To differentiate it from red which is called red.\n(joke couldn't resist)\nI think there is no reason for the word blue except whoever was in charge of naming words named it blue.\nDo you like it?\nThere was a game book where they made up a condition of life and then named it.Very funny and we who read  it could relate.  For instance a person who likes to practice outer body experience just before he has sex might be called........voyeur. or  retroactive.\nSo you might try this yourself. when intrigued by a certain condition of life.

Because the want to give the appearance of being gentlemen.It is an indoor sport so that qualifies the use of coats and ties as proper wear.
