Your clock is off by a little over an hour; while ntpd can correct very large offsets, doing so takes a long time. Kill ntpd, re-run "ntpdate -b", double-check that your clock is sane, and then re-start ntpd.

You should also note that your third ntp server is not answering queries, so you should try finding some other ntp server to use. Are you providing time syncronization from this machine to other hosts, or are you only running as a standalone client?

If you are not providing time sync to a large subnet, please consider using stratum-2 servers or the NTP pool, ie, pool.ntp.org, or more specific regional parts, such as 0.us.pool.ntp.org, 1.us.pool.ntp.org-- this is assuming from your IP that you are located in the US, otherwise choose the appropriate country code for where-ever you are.
