    Execute top command in terminal and terminal process with kill command.
    OR
    Press Ctrl+Esc. System Monitor will pop up. Select process and click on Kill button.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    Other commands you can use are ps (especially "ps ex" and "ps aux") and htop.
