Why the grinder of the sink do not work?
The grinder, or garbage disposal, may be broken for a number of reasons. If you are using it correctly and cutting items small enough for the grinder to handle before placing placing them down the drain, and using water while you run the disposal, there shouldn't be a problem. If you are using it correctly and the grinder still isn't working properly, the problem may be a broken belt or a worn out motor.
What is a garbage collector called?
In Java it is called by the same name "Garbage Collector" The purpose of the garbage collector to free up unused heap space so that it can be utilized by the other programs. All unused objects are cleared using the GC to create space for other applications/programs.

When does an object get destroyed in programming?
I agree with @Hilmar. You can never predict when exactly the object will be destroyed. But, you can definitely predict when an object is ready to be destroyed.Difference between the two can be easily explained using an example (I'm using JAVA here):Employee emp = new Employee("Dexter");This statement creates an object of Employee (with name Dexter) which resides in the heap.As long as you are using the reference "emp" for this object , the object will stay there. Its indestructible. Garbage Collector cannot even touch it.Now lets say, after a few lines of code, you are executing:emp = new Employee("RITA");This creates a new object of Employee (with name RITA), but notice that the reference "emp" no longer points to our old object with the name Dexter. Hence the object of Employee with the name Dexter has no references associated with it.And this makes it eligible for the Garbage Collection, and whenever the next round of Garbage Collection happens, the mighty GarbageCollector will not leave this chance to eat up the Employee (with the name Dexter).

How do you deodorize a garbage disposal?
To deodorize a garbage disposal you can either put some baking soda in the drain and let it sit for a while or my favorite is to run lemon peels through the disposal after you do the dishes every night. You can use orange peels, too. Just make sure the pieces are small enough to run through without clogging it.
Can you put spinach down the garbage disposal?
You should be able to as long as you use enough water both while using the disposal and after to make sure it all goes down the drain. While zucchini skin is tough, it doesn't have fibers or strands that could bind up on the cutting knives in the disposal.
Repairing a Fussy Garbage Disposal?
A garbage disposal is a convenient tool for virtually any kitchen, and once the appliance is in use every day, it is hard to do without one. There are a few things that can cause a garbage disposal to go on the fritz and some of them can actually be fixed without calling in a professional.No NoiseIf the disposal has stopped making any noise when it has been turned on, there are some things that can be checked.1. Look under the sink, at the bottom of the garbage disposal, and try to press the unit's reset button. Sometimes it is as simple as the reset button popping out. Push it back in and give the disposal another try.2. Check the circuit breaker. If it has been tripped, switch it off and back on, then try the disposal again.3. Find the switch that powers the garbage disposal. This is usually located on the wall near the sink or in the cabinet underneath the sink. It may be a case of a malfunctioning switch. Turn off the circuit breaker the powers the disposal, then replace the faulty switch. Try the disposal once again. If this is an uncomfortable situation, it might be worth it to have a professional fix it.4. If nothing else is fixing the problem and the disposal still makes no noise when turned on, it might need to be replaced completely. A bit of do-it-yourself knowledge is required for this sort of replacement, so a professional might be needed.Strange NoisesIf the disposal unit is making odd or humming noises but will not actually run, it might be clogged or stuck on something.1. Switch the circuit breaker that powers the disposal off.2. Most garbage disposals come with an offset wrench. Insert this wrench into the flywheel turning hole - this is situated on the bottom of the garbage disposal. Going in a clockwise direction, turn the wrench. This will dislodge anything that has gotten stuck. The flywheel will turn freely when it has been cleared.3. Never put a hand down the garbage disposal. Using a wooden broom handle, the disposal's impeller can be easily unclogged or unstuck from the sink drain. Place the end of the handle against the impeller and, using a bit of elbow grease, try to free it. When it is not obstructed any longer, remove the handle and push the reset button underneath the unit.4. Turn the water on in the sink and quickly switch the disposal off and on for a few seconds. This will make the flywheel spin and can help to dislodge anything clogging it.

My garbage disposal keeps tripping the breaker. I have used an Allen wrench to make sure it's not jammed and have also tried resetting the red switch on the disposal. What could be the problem?
Could it be that someone in your home is using it for a long time continuously OR using some other device long enough to overload the breaker? Not implying who that some one is
Is you just played some nonsense that sounded like a cat running up and down a garbage cans a hyperbole?
Correction-No, "you just played some nonsense that sounded like a cat running up and down a garbage cans" is a simile, a comparison using like or as. A metaphor is a comparison without using like or as. Hyperbole is extreme exaggeration.
How do you unbind blades on a Garbage Disposal Unit?
Two ways. On the bottom of the disposal in the center there is a hex shaped hole. A rod came with the disposal for that purpose. It may be under the sink somewhere. Insert the hex key and wiggle back and forth. Second way, use a wooden broom handle or similar, put it in the disposal and gently pry against the blades using the opening in the sink as the pivot point. Pry both ways and you can usually get it loosened.

Why does garbage disposal hum but not run?
Either something is jammed in the blades or it is rusted. On the bottom of the disposal, there is a hex shaped hole in the center that you can use the key that came with the disposal if it is under the sink or a regular hex key. Wiggle it back and forth and sometimes it will dislodge what is stuck in the blade. Another way is to use a wooden broom handle to pry the blades loose. Put the handle into the disposal and against the blade and pry against the lip of the hole. Try in both directions and usually this will free up the blade. If there is something in there, take it out before using the disposal, don't try to grind it up.
