So, this has been happening ever since Mountain Lion, but honestly, I've just 
been rebooting, and dealing with it.  Lately though, this is starting to drive 
me crazy!  I have Facebook, and Twitter both integrated into OSX.  I also do 
use YoruFukurou, although I don't know if that's playing a role here or not.  
Every couple of days, I keep getting a notification that pops up which I 
visually can see the little white window right below my clock and my 
notification area in the top right of the screen.  The problem is, if I open up 
my notification center, and interact with the table, I see all the 
notifications and I see the dismiss buttons, but even after I dismiss the 
different things there, that daw gone window is still there!  I don't care what 
the heck I do, try and try and try as I may, I can not! get Voiceover to focus 
me in the stupid thing!  The only way I've been able to get it to work and go 
away is to highlight my Macintosh HD volume on the desktop, being it's always 
 the top most icon, then take my actual physical mouse, being I have it 
tethered to my voiceover cursor, and ever, ever! so slightly move it diagonally 
up and slightly to the left.  It takes some hit and miss, but usually by about 
the 3rd or 4th time of clicking, I can hit that stupid alert notification.  It 
usually then will go away, until it decides to be a jerk and pop up again.  
Sometimes, even clicking in that area doesn't get rid of it.  I'm finding this 
more than not now.  I've gone into my menu extras, and I've exitted out of 
practically everything.  Anything from Growl, Dropbox, Clean my Drive, No sleep 
helper, Google Drive, Bitcasa, You name it!  I've killed practically 
everything!  I even disabled them from running again in my login items.  None 
of this seems to help.  I don't think it's YoruFukurou, as I said earlier, as 
even when it's not running, I have this problem.  I thought maybe it was a 
calendar alert, but I dismissed all of those.  I don't have Mail opene
 d, so it's not an incoming e-mail message.  I don't have ITunes opened, so 
it's not an app update, nor a sync complete alert.  I don't have Downcast 
opened, so it's not a feeds refreshed alert.  I thought maybe it was a software 
update, in general, alert, so I went to the Apple menu, and to software update, 
but nothing was there needing updated.  I even shut off automatic updating, 
just in case that was causing the problem.  It apparently wasn't, as that 
still! isn't helping.  The times that I click, and can't get the thing to go 
away, I wind up just having to reboot the system, and that does it, until it 
decides to get a wild hare up it's butt and do it again.  Needless to say, this 
is driving me bananas!  It's visually getting in my way, and frankly, looks 
gross! having it just sitting up there staring/laughing at me, saying, you 
caint get me, you caint get me!  LOL!  No, it literally isn't saying that...  
I'm kidding.  Seriously though, it may as well be.  I'm sorry, but 
 ever since that notification center came along in OSX, it's given me nothing 
but grief.  I know I could disable it entirely, but then, I won't get things I 
do wanna know like calendar alerts, etc. so that's not the answer.

What on earth else is left that I could try?  Before you say disk repair, 
permission repair, etc. I'm already ahead of ya.  I've done that billions of 
times, and yes, I did it from within the recovery partition, so I'd not have 
locked files in use.  I even went as far as to boot to a totally different disk 
altogether and do it, and it had no barings whenever I did.

This is driving me sick!  I must say... I'm baffled!

Chris.
