Dog running away from and barking at nothing?

My dog has always been happy and healthy, very friendly, and never barks. For the last few days, he has been acting crazy. He never lets us leave him alone, and even follows us down the hall, where he has never been allowed to go. He doesn't sleep at night, and instead wanders around the house growling.My parents leave me home alone a lot, because I am 16, and so I find his behavior unnerving. Right now he is wandering around the house with his tail between his legs, as though he is running from something. He keeps staring off into space and growling, and then running away. Then right now he came and started sitting on my feet, "guarding" me I guess, or just looking for comfort. He keeps turning his head as though he is watching something move through the house and I find his behavior very unsettling. I have checked through the entire house thoroughly multiple times, and I am sure that there is no one here but my dog and I. I am not sure why he is behaving this way, and I wonder if perhaps there is an animal outside, possibly another dog, that he is trying to communicate with or investigate. On a side note, I thought there possibly could have been an intruder because I heard and saw doors opening and closing on their own, but again I have checked every nook and cranny and all the doors and windows are locked. Thanks for the help, and please suggest something helpful, like that my dog is stressed or something, and not some weird juju stuff.

Which book should I read? - 1

Im trying to decide between:
Just Listen by Sarah Dessen
Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson
The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
All of these books sound appealing to me and I know they are all good books, from their reviews and word of mouth..now I can't decide. I'm looking for a good summer book to start on my nook..I'll probably end up reading all of them but idk which one to get first, thanks!

Tablet recommendations?

I am considering buying a tablet. I would prefer not to buy an iPad (don't like Apple), but I do like how reactive the touchscreen is (as opposed to other tablets I've tried).

However, I do like the HD Nook and Kindle. I am also considering the HP Slate. What do people like?

Why aren't we doing anything about the technology taking over our jobs?

For the last decade we had so many unemployment because companies replaced man with machine

I was in Target last month and they had these little machines were you can do your own scanning and pay (obviously its a plan to save money and not hire employees)

and what about manufacturing jobs, those jobs are now done by 3-D printers and other machines.
that's millions of factory workers unemployed

and what about Netflix? there used to be Blockbuster and all these video rental stores which employed people and now they can't do that anymore because everybody just sits home and watches it.
Same thing goes for libraries; the electronic books and nooks are making them obsolete

All this stuff is happening but nobody cares, everybody just watches there shows and drinks their starbucks.In other countries they are less sheep and they will protest and do something about it.
Now Im an American but I've been to other countries and know many cultures and the thing is, is that we are so sheep and dull, and we don't join in the fight that will give us our justice and respect
or at least not anymore

Does one bad review really overshadow several good ones?

About 2 years ago, I published my first book which was orginially written about a year or so, before it was published. Anyways, I have sold several copies with Amazon, Kindle & Nook.It's not a Best Seller, but I am still pretty happy with it. However, when I ask people to view my Amazon page they see my 1 bad review, than no one is interested in the multiple great reviews I do have. Although the good reviews, are on my personal site (for some reason people prefer it.) Www.wix.com/eleven11eleven11/eleveneleve… which is where the reviews are.So my question is this, is 1 bad review where the reader claims they didn't buy the book, they "borrowed" it, and claim that i reviewed my own book ( I never did. This is my only Amazon review.) So what does everyone think is 1 review, one person's opinion, truly so terrible, & such a huge deal?
10 pts for best answer. Thanks!

Dis-Functional Family?

This is not mispelled, however its spelled this way purposely. I know traditionally that dysfunction is spelled with a "y," I however titled my book with "dis", as in "this."
Anyways, moving on.It's currently available on Amazon.com, Nook & Kindle. Sorry for rambling, my question is this: is this topic interesting? Should i continue my series? Would anyone here mind reading a sample possibly, & offering an opinion? A quick synopsis: Dis-Functional Family by Ashley Ford, is a reality based comedy surrounding a girl whose family is uprooted by their aunt's death, and move to a little town in the middle of nowhere. Here, they meet a group of misfit people whom introduce them to their way of life; which is hilarious & highly unusual. Thanks i appreciate the answers! Please dont critisize me, this is my 2nd book and i'm trying really hard to get it out there.
10 pts best answer.
