Hosts that report down but aren't

I'm having a little trouble monitoring a particular host at the moment.
The host is up as are the 4 services I'm monitoring.  The 4 services are
reported as up.  The host no longer allows ICMPs so I removed the
check_ping service (#5).  The host still reports itself as down even
though its 4 services are up.  I thought the host was assumed to be up if
one of its services was up.  Is that incorrect?  My config for that host
is below.  Can anyone see any mistakes?  Thanks
