6. how can i teach him not to yell when people pass by my room?

Answer 1

Well dear, this is very simple  You should keep him in his cage.  A bird stand is for playing.

As far as yelling in the cage, here's what we do.  Get a squirt bottle, fill it with simple tap water, and squirt him once every time he yells.  It's a training thing, so it'll take some time.  

Amazons are a single person bird.  They bond to one person, and when others get near you, it's instinct for them to protect you.  You are, in his mind, part of his flock.  And others are a threat to your safety.

He'll mix his food with water for s***s a giggles.  Parrots do that.

He may just dislike sunflower seeds.  

And if he's throwing up in your hand, he may be trying to feed you.

Sunflower seeds, in our experience, make birds hateful.  Try not to give them to him.  Try walnuts or macadamia nuts.  They're all safe.  And he can eat almost everything you do.  Just no caffeine, chocolate, avocados, or apricots.  Fruits and vegetables are good for them.

He's  bird.  Birds run like birds.  They waddle.

We own 3 cockatoos, an eclectus and an African grey.  My mother has worked for a bird specialized store for 6 years, so we know what we're doing.
