This looks like you have two sources for experimental, get rid of one.

The values have specific meaning, it's not enough to have just some 
value bigger than the other one.

A pin bigger than 990 and smaller or equal to 1000 has a special 
meaning, see 'man apt_preferences'. Try downgrading this to 990.

Here you have two pins for the same archive (sid is unstable and will 
not change)

Do you need lenny?

Generally I advocate much simpler pinning, especially if you are not 
familiar with it.

If you would explain what exactly you are trying to achieve (i.e. which 
release do you want to use in general, for which packages do you need 
exceptions and why, etc.) then we might suggest something much simpler 
and more maintainable. Don't forget to also post all your sources. 

Kind regards,
Andrei
