I'm still not sure what's modifying your resolv.conf, but I'll point
out that those dns-nameserver lines won't work without resolvconf. The
basic networking infrastructure doesn't provide any way to publish
static nameserver information in the interfaces file, and those lines
are for the resolvconf package (see its manpage).
Also, I have occasionally had similar problems to yours, and the
culprit, at least sometimes, was dhcp itself. Running the dhcp client,
or even a forgotten dhcp process in the background, can clear out your
resolv.conf or fill it with improper values.
