According to that log your host went down once and was just notifying at
the interval you mentioned in the config you posted earlier.

You can either increase the notification_interval (i.e. 10 minutes if
you want to ceceive notifications every ten minutes) or use escalations
to get only the first or a certain number of notifications.

This is in Nagios 3, which is still alpha.

To disable regularly scheduled checks just omit the "check_interval"
option in your host definitions. See the Nagios documentation for more
details...

Host definitions:

Host checks logic:

I guess I missed the part where you said you were punting the host ;)
