Help Help: I've disabled notifications

Somehow I seem to have disabled notifications on my Galaxy Note 10.1. On the left side of the clock I only see a icon showing i with a circle around it and crossed out. There are no notification icons coming anymore. If I click the notification area, the details of notifications are showing. I've searched settings, but I can't find a way to turn them back on. In fact I don't remember how I switched them off also :(. Does somebody know how to fix this?
 
Found it! Click on the clock, scroll Wi-Fi, GPS, etc.to the left and there is the button to enable the notifications again. Strange that this option is not visible in the Settings screen.
It's in the Settings menu, but individually controlled. The quick controls you mention from the notifications popup are GLOBAL settings to turn items On/Off, like changing to vibrate for all settings, or silencing all notifications. And it's the only place that globally turns notifications On/Off by default, so I can only conclude that you did it by accident when checking out the various options, or an app was installed that controls these settings.
