Blue Lanterns are uninitiated members, equivalent to Mafia associates, and do not have a designating number. According to De Leon Petta Gomes da Costa, who interviewed triads and authorities in Hong Kong, most of the current structure is a vague, low hierarchy; the traditional ranks and positions no longer exist.

Similar to the Sicilian Mafia or the Japanese yakuza , triad members participate in initiation ceremonies. After drinking a mixture of wine and blood from the animal or the candidate , the member passes beneath an arch of swords while reciting the triad's oaths. The paper on which the oaths are written will be burnt on the altar to confirm the member's obligation to perform his duties to the gods.

Three fingers of the left hand are raised as a binding gesture. Similar to triads, Tongs originated independently in early immigrant Chinatown communities. The word means "social club," and tongs are not specifically underground organizations. The first tongs formed during the second half of the 19th century among marginalized members of early immigrant Chinese-American communities for mutual support and protection from nativists.

Modeled on triads, they were established without clear political motives and became involved in criminal activities such as extortion, illegal gambling, drug and human trafficking, murder and prostitution. Triads were also active in Chinese communities throughout Southeast Asia. When Malaysia and Singapore with the region's largest population of ethnic Chinese became crown colonies , secret societies and triads controlled local communities by extorting protection money and illegal money lending.

Many conducted blood rituals, such as drinking one another's blood, as a sign of brotherhood; others ran opium dens and brothels. Remnants of these former gangs and societies still exist. Due to government efforts in Malaysia and Singapore to reduce crime, the societies have largely faded from the public eye particularly in Singapore. Triads were also common in Vietnamese cities with large Chinese especially Cantonese and Teochew communities.

Triads are also active in other regions with significant overseas-Chinese populations: They are often involved in migrant smuggling. They cooperate with the police to impede the expansion of triads and other organized gangs. The Asian Gang Unit of the Metro Toronto Police was formerly responsible for dealing with triad-related matters, but a larger unit was created to deal with the broad array of ethnic gangs. At the national and, in some cases, provincial level, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police 's Organized Crime Branch is responsible for investigating gang-related activities including triads.

Asian gangs are found in many cities, primarily Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary and Edmonton. The Organized Crime and Law Enforcement Act provides a tool for police forces in Canada to handle organized criminal activity.

Archived from the original on 16 July A tonic chord includes the 1st, 3rd, and 5th degrees, the most stable degrees of a key. On the other hand, the VII chord includes the 2nd, 4th, and 7th degrees, the most active degrees of a key. It is common to see a chord as a structure of thirds. The superimposed thirds can be major M3 or minor m3 , which gives us triads of four types:. The following example shows us triads in C major and C minor. The natural minor scale III in a minor key is the same as the tonic in a relative major, so minor keys usually include chords accordant with the harmonic minor scale, of which the V and VII in a box are the most common.

The note leading to the tonic establishes a stable sense of key. In a harmonic minor scale, the leading note or the seventh degree as to the key signature is raised. A melodic minor scale includes a leading note and a raised sixth degree when moving upwards. A melodic minor scale downwards is like the natural minor scale. Since the sixth and seventh degree of a minor key may in one composition conform to any of the minor scales, defining indexes are sometimes necessary.

Numerical and prefix symbols based on the figured bass labelling are also quite common. Scale degrees in a major key are more fixed than those in a minor key, where factors concerned with melody and voice leading determine the "colouring" used for the sixth and seventh degrees.
