Three possible reasons,
one in the line for weekly, remove the "H" between
the "0" and the "root"
two, on the last line try */5 instead of 0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50
and you missed 55 BTW.
three, try this command
echo -ne "\n`date`\n\n" > /dev/console
instead of (echo""; date; echo"")>/dev/console
-Ben.
