PM warns against policy logjam; reforms draw protest
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Manmohan Singh warned that a prolonged policy logjam could slow economic growth to 5 percent, a day after India unexpectedly unveiled long-delayed reforms aimed at reviving growth and preventing a credit-rating downgrade.
Political opponents and a key UPA ally took to the streets on Saturday to protest Friday's move to allow foreign players into the supermarket industry and Thursday's decision to increase heavily subsidised diesel prices.
"We demand a rollback of diesel prices and no FDI (foreign direct investment) in retail should be allowed. Do not attack the livelihood of small traders," Mamata Banerjee, chief minister of West Bengal, told a rally attended by thousands in Kolkata.
Investors and others who hailed the reforms worry that Singh's government, weakened by a spate of scandals, will be forced to backtrack, as it did in its last attempt last year to allow in the likes of Wal-Mart Stores Inc and Carrefour.
Banerjee, whose Trinamool Congress party has been an unreliable ally to Singh's Congress party in the coalition, said the party would "take a tough decision" if the measures were not reversed, a hint she could withdraw the party's support.
Speaking at a meeting of India's planning commission to finalise investment targets for the five years to March 2017, Singh said the government would aim for 8.2 percent annual growth over that period, down from an earlier target of 9 percent. He also outlined three potential scenarios at Saturday's meeting.
"Scenario three is called a policy logjam. It reflects a situation where, for one reason or another, most of the policies needed to achieve scenario one are not taken," Singh said.

"If this continues for any length of time, vicious cycles begin to set in and growth could easily collapse to about 5 percent per annum with poor outcomes on inclusion."
With Singh's embattled government long unable to push through reforms to promote investment and shore up government finances, growth in Asia's third-largest economy has slowed to 5.5 percent or below in the past two quarters.
Credit rating agencies have warned of the risk of a downgrade to "junk" status.
On Friday, the government said it was opening up its supermarket sector to foreign chains and would allow more foreign investment in airlines and broadcasters. It also approved the sale of stakes in four state-run industries.
Singh said government policy initiatives such as the hike in diesel prices were aimed at reining in a widening fiscal deficit and reviving investor sentiment.
The government projects a fiscal deficit of 5.1 percent of gross domestic product in India's nearly $1.8 trillion economy in the current fiscal year ending in March, while many private economists predict it to reach 6 percent or more.

In New Delhi on Saturday, roughly 500 supporters of the main opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) protested against foreign direct investment in multibrand retail and the fuel price increase.

Dog goD 8Hate
Returning to Manhattan
Walking across the Roeblings' prized project,
I gazed out at an impeded dusk setting;
This, as the East River begin to fade…
There was a faint object moving
Close to the Manhattan shore,
Splashing in lurid testimony, it seemed a person.
The frenzy stopped.
What had been desperation's curious plight
Had turned to an ominous deposition:
Giovanni Nicoli had dealt with his girl friend's suitor.
He was now free to pursue his presumptive object –
An over-stuffed cannoli oozing ricotta cheese.
I ran back to Brooklyn … for a donut.

July 10th is a new holiday for some people. According to marijuana smokers, 7/10 is the new 4/20.
But marijuana lovers celebrated 7/10 differently than 4/20. If you flip 710 upside down, it spells "oil," the latest form of THC.
KOB Eyewitness News 4's Danielle Todesco spoke with a local dispensary who is concerned that the holiday will lead to people using the oil illegally and irresponsibly.
Erin Sayre at R. Greenleaf's dispensary says the hash oil is extremely potent and they reserve it for clients in the most extreme pain.
"Don't abuse something that took us this long for us to be able to get to people as a form of help for some of the saddest cases I've seen," Sayre said.
Hash oil and wax is also extremely dangerous to make. It starts as butane hash oil and is very flammable.

China has removed its anti-dumping measures against cold-rolled steel coil imports from South Korea, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Taiwan, according to country's Ministry of Commerce.
The ministry said the move, which takes effect immediately, was necessary because China's cold-rolled steel was in short supply. Domestic producers have complained of rising prices due to the tariffs. The statement did not say whether the ministry might reverse its stance if the supply situation changed.
The ministry also halted its import certification requirement on cold-rolled steel used to produce tin plate from the same countries.
China imposed tariffs in January 2004 after investigations started in March 2002. The ministry started reviewing the tariffs in May. (AFP)

Gerald Henderson calls his steal in '84 Finals greatest play in Celtics history
Sep 19, 2013, 10:27 PM EDT
The Boston Celtics are one of the league's most storied franchises, so any conversation that tries to identify the single greatest play in the team's history is ultimately an exercise in futility, with the point being that there are far too many moments of greatness for there to be one that transcends all others.
But Gerald Henderson of the '84 Celtics team that beat the Lakers in seven games to win a championship has a legitimate argument that his defensive play in Game 2 of that series should be included in the conversation.
The video clip above shows Henderson's brilliance — Boston, already down a game in the series, was trailing by two points near the end of regulation. A loss would mean heading back to L.A. trailing 2-0, and the task of coming back would have been a daunting one.
Henderson, however, stole a pass from Magic Johnson in the back court, and laid it in with 13 seconds remaining to tie things up. The Celtics ended up winning in overtime, after a stunned Magic inexplicably dribbled the clock out as time expired in regulation.
Henderson is not shy about his accomplishment, and feels it should be recognized as the top play in the history of the franchise.
From Jay King of MassLive.com:
During a video message to John Karalis from the Celtics blog Red's Army — who, during a recent post to commemorate the 26th anniversary of Larry Bird's steal against the Detroit Pistons, labeled Bird's theft "the best play in Celtics history" — Henderson suggested his own famous steal should be rated No. 1.
"Not too long ago, you called Larry Bird's steal against the Pistons in '87 the best play in Celtics history. Well, as you know, that's not true," said Henderson. "It was one of them. It was a fantastic play by The Legend, but you forget about my steal in Game 2 of the '84 Finals. The Lakers were so stunned that Magic (Johnson) — Tragic Magic at the time — he ran out the final play, dribble, dribble, dribble."
Bird's steal against the Pistons will remain one of the team's great plays, simply because it similarly saved the Celtics in a series where they appeared ready to fall behind by an insurmountable margin.
But Henderson has a point, because while Boston beat the Pistons in '87 and made it to the Finals, they eventually lost to the Lakers. His play, however, helped guide his team to one of its 17 NBA titles.

Why Are Rates of Inflation So Low After Large Devaluations?
AbstractThis paper studies the behavior of inflation after nine large post-1990 contractionary devaluations. A salient feature of the data is that inflation is low relative to the rate of devaluation. We argue that the distribution costs and substitution away from imports to lower quality local goods can account quantitatively for the post-devaluation behavior of prices.

Yes, Aang's head is strange and Zuko's hair is odd.

14 Of The Obamas' Most Decadent Vacations On Your Dime
Judging by the schedule Barack Obama keeps, being President doesn't seem like all that tough of a job. You play golf, you shoot hoops, you go on posh vacation after posh vacation and then you give speeches complaining about all the fatcats that are soaking the American people. Of course, living that kind of lifestyle seems a little hypocritical for a man who's cutting off White House tours for the "little people" while he warns Americans about all those evil rich people who are supposedly looting them blind by keeping their own money. Of course, if anyone knows about looting other people's money, it would have to be Barack Obama, who is enjoying a lifestyle that even Donald Trump would have trouble affording.
August 2009: The home the Obama family stayed in during their vacation at Martha's Vineyard, Mass.

Ty Dolla $ign - Or Nah (Remix)
Artist: Ty Dolla $ign
Featuring: Wiz Khalifa, The Weeknd
Producer: DJ Mustard
Album: None (Promo Single)
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 8 total votes )
Over six months ago, Ty Dolla $ign's Or Nah helped propel the west coast crooner to national fame, and shortly after The Weeknd decided to drop his own, not-even-remotely-safe for work, version. Well, the wait is over, now it's official. With DJ Mustard's beat and Wiz Khalifa's original guest verse completely intact, Abel's explicit crooning is now the foundation of the Or Nah (Remix), which has just been made available for purchase on iTunes. So, is it better than the original….or nah?
Update: We have added the Ryan Patrick-directed visuals for Ty Dolla $ign's Or Nah (Remix) single.

Check these out, too...
Whenever I go to basketball games, there's this security guy that always stares at me.
He looks really creepy. I think I might like him though.
What should I do?
Hit the brakes on this one. Older guys can be intriguing, but this age gap is too wide to ever be OK. Trust me, you don't wanna get involved.
You should def be seeing a huge "stop" sign when you think about your schools security guard. Don't forget what this dude's job is—to protect you from harm in school. It's totally cool to befriend him, but don't forget boundaries. There is a fine line between being friendly and being inappropriate—and in this case, it's illegal since you're a minor and he's um, not.
Just an FYI: You should probably like a guy within a two to three year age range. Why? Think of it this way—would you really wanna go out with a sixth grader who just started middle school, when you're a frosh in H.S.? At this stage in your life, you grow up A LOT within the course of even just a year. Totally different life experiences usually equals totally incompatible, hon.
Even though he's too old for you, maybe you can find a mini semi-twin version of your security guard crush that's closer to your age. Try putting a Book o' Boys together where you can keep track of all the guys you like and their traits. This way you'll know what to look for in the future.
1. Age/ Grade:
2. Height:
3. Body Structure:
4. Hair: length & color
5. Eye Color:
6. Athlete: yes/no
7. Musician: yes/no
8. Personality? (Funny/Shy/flirty):
9. Interests:
10. Hobbies:
Oh, and another thing? Don't be afraid to give guys who normally aren't your "type" a chance. Never went for a total band geek before? Um, hello, he could write you tons of love songs.
If this security guard continues to stare at you OR if he starts to make comments that make you feel creeped on, tell a trusted teacher or another adult. Sexual harassment is a serious issue that needs to be addressed ASAP. Talk it out, get help if you still feel weirded and remember to crush on cuties around your age. It'll work out, I promise!

Moyes wary of Royals
David Moyes has admitted that Reading could pose a threat to his side ahead of tomorrow's meeting between the two clubs.
Everton host the Royals at Goodison Park tomorrow afternoon in the Premier League, and despite saying he was expecting a win from his players Moyes stated that Brian McDermott's side could pose problems for his defence from set pieces.
"Like all the Premier League teams, everybody poses a threat," said Moyes in an exclusive interview with evertontv. "As I've said many times, games in the Premier League are close encounters – that's the way it has been.
"We hope that we can get three points and try and keep our good league form going, which we have had this season.
"That's been the style Reading have adopted (defending in numbers).
"They have been able to get people behind the ball but they have scored a lot of goals this year as well. They have got a lot of goals from set-pieces and we will have to be mindful of it."

Marc Staal almost ready for contact
Dec 19, 2011, 1:18 PM EDT
Marc Staal's season might be getting closer to starting in New York.
The Rangers updated Staal's recovery from concussion-like symptoms today and said the young defenseman could be cleared for contact in the coming days. Staal has missed all of the season and training camp thanks to having trouble getting over the concussion he suffered last season in a massive collision with his brother Eric.
New York's defense without Staal, however, has held strong. Dan Girardi has been a rock for them and the play of Henrik Lundqvist in goal has helped save them from any mistakes. Staal is their big gun though and getting him back in the lineup (whenever that happens) will give the Rangers a huge lift and make them an even tougher out in the Eastern Conference.

You better believe it. Might be slow going at first, (I'm not expecting all star play right away) but he should help the PP and will give us an instant lift, while replacing his buddy Sauer who is now out w/shoulder. Our new kid McDonagh need LESS minutes, he's starting to tire.

In 2008, South Pacific swept the Tony Awards®, capturing seven golden trophies, including Best Musical Revival and Best Director for Bartlett Sher. Based on James Michener's Pulitzer Prize–winning book, Tales of the South Pacific, South Pacific tells, dances, and sings the story of two couples—Navy nurse Nellie Forbush with French plantation owner Emile de Becque, and airman Joe Cable with lovely native lass Liat— torn by war and the temptations of tropical paradise. The original production won the Pulitzer Prize for drama in 1950, with its frank depiction of racial prejudice as a central theme.
Housed in a charmingly rustic venue, the Culver City eatery specializes in a more-refined version of Korean barbecue. Smokeless barbecue grills allow diners to experience tableside service without lingering wafts of eau de dinner. Fish fans will appreciate the glazed miso salmon ($21), sided with succotash, or poached black cod with Korean miso broth ($22). While the full menu is available anytime, Groupon holders can also take advantage of the prix fixe G menu, with options to feed parties of two, three, or four ($79–$195) any Thursday through Saturday. The date-friendly G1 option on the prix fixe includes Gyenari's galbee, bulgogi, aged pork belly, flower chicken, and japchae. For larger groups, try the G4, a full-on meat fest that includes filet mignon, Wagyu beef, fresh lobster tail, and diver sea scallops ($195 for four people). For dessert, upgrade from ordinary sprinkled dough rings with Gyenari's famed green-tea doughnuts ($8). The piping-hot pastries come made to order with a buttermilk-raspberry glaze and Ghirardelli chocolate sauce for dipping.

Ugo claims to be the first establishment in Southern California to feature enomatic dispensers. These self-service wine stations begin to pour with the simple swipe of a card, making it even easier to get comfy inside a romantic space defined by candlelight and live jazz music.
Consistently praised by the Los Angeles Times, LA Weekly, and numerous other publications, BottleRock enlightens palates with a wine inventory of more than 600 labels and a selection of carefully crafted small plates. Oenophiles can unleash their imaginations sans the risk of being punched by Dionysis with a wine flight—a dramatic sequence of three 2-ounce pours. After a trio of samplings, connoisseurs can nibble on mild and nutty manchego cheese from Spain or indulge in tender pork rillette, slow-cooked in-house and served as a pâté. Cheese plates contain guests' choice of five or seven out of 14 available moon fruits, and elegant charcuterie platters highlight one of six meat treats. Consult the dinner menu for a full list of available options. Wine tastings featuring the happy tears of grapes from Robert Hall Winery let patrons sample an assortment of adult juices, each paired with elegant snacks such as tuna tartar and grilled truffle cheese.
If you're not sure how to categorize Blind Barber—(Is it a barbershop? Cocktail lounge? Restaurant?)—just call it a men's clubhouse. That description's just dandy with Adam Kirsch, who sat down with his partners Jeff Laub and Josh Boyd for a May 2012 LA Times interview. "We wanted to create a spot where we could just hang out any time of day," said Kirsch, "whether you're partying, relaxing, getting your hair cut, or on your computer just doing work." And so they have. The concept was inspired by the Roaring Twenties, when going for a haircut meant socializing, discussing women, dealing cards, and playing Six Degrees of Jay Gatsby. Every cut, trim, and shave in the shop comes with a complimentary beverage and good conversation. With four barber stations arranged in an airy storefront space, and a bar in the back kicking out seasonal and specialty cocktails, beers, and sliders, Blind Barber has revived the art of looking dapper and the sanctity of feeling like you belong.

In Hollywood's golden days, they were known as Meet Cutes: Those cute moments at the beginning of a movie where the boy and the girl would meet. You remember. Katharine Hepburn dropping her packages in the revolving door and Spencer Tracy bending over to help her, and their heads bumping. Even the best actors had trouble making it through a Meet Cute with more than a forced smile - the dialog was almost always smarmy - but the movies usually picked up afterwards.
That's not the case, alas, with "The Main Event," which is a Meet Cute from beginning to end, forced smiles, smarmy dialog and all. Barbra Streisand and Ryan O'Neal act so cute, indeed, that I was squirming. There should have been a scene showing them brushing their teeth and vowing to the mirror: "Every day in every way, I'm getting cuter and cuter." This is the first shaggy dog movie that pets itself.
The story: Streisand, an expert in perfume fragrances, discovers that her accountants have bilked her, and she's penniless; all except for a worthless contract she owns on a has-been boxer. She was paying his salary as a tax shelter, but now she needs him to fight again, so she can make some money. The boxer, of course, is Ryan O'Neal, last seen as Streisand's comedy partner in the much better "What's Up, Doc?"
I should explain, I suppose, that "The Main Event" isn't really a boxing movie. That's just what O'Neal does for a living. It's an endless series of harmless sexual innuendoes, centered around Streisand's instant crush on O'Neal. So we get jokes on two levels: (1) The difficulties of being a woman in the male world of professional boxing, and (2) O'Neal's blithe indifference to Streisand's growing passion.
There's material here for a nice old-fashioned comedy; the basic relationship goes back to movies like "It Happened One Night" and "The African Queen." But "The Main Event" is so confident of Streisand's superstar charm that it doesn't really make her work. Scenes that need to be funny because of their material are supposed to be funny, here, because we know it's Streisand.
Example. When her boxer, Kid, Natural, goes up to a mountain camp to train for a big match, Streisand, as the manager, has to sleep in the same bunkhouse with the sparring partners and trainers. One woman, a dozen muscle bound and hairy guys, and it's bedtime. Funny? If it were handled with comic timing, to build up the situation and tease it.
Instead, the camera stays stubbornly on Streisand, doesn't adequately establish the behavior of the men around her, and wants us to laugh because she goes to bed with her coat still on. Just because Streisand's the star doesn't mean we have to be looking at her every second; developing the characters of the men in the scene would have made her better, too.
There are funny things in the movie. There's Kid Natural's girlfriend (Patti D'Arbanville), with a hacking cigaret cough and a wayward shoulder strap. And a scene early in the film which has Streisand making her way through a men's dressing room with her eyes simultaneously averted from all possible directions. And a bed scene in which O'Neal tries to go to sleep while Streisand desperately tries to invent a Meet Cute between the sheets.
But the movie just doesn't have the life, the zaniness, this kind of screwball material demands. The situations are so calculated, the double entendres are so flat, the chemistry between Streisand and O'Neal has been so mechanically plotted, that we don't get the notion of a movie comedy that's happening while we watch it.
Instead, there's a comic machine that grinds out the same cute eyelash-flappings and eyebrow-liftings and lustful intakes of breath scene after scene, as if one idea were enough for a movie.

Edward VIII bugged by gov'ttags: Nazis, Telegraph (UK), royalty, Edward VIII, George VI
Edward VIII was bugged on the orders of the Home Secretary in the days before his abdication as part of a wider Government campaign to control the impending scandal.
Intelligence files kept secret for almost 80 years today reveal that phone calls from Buckingham Palace and the monarch's Windsor residence, Fort Belvedere, were monitored while he decided whether to give up the throne for Wallis Simpson.
The revelation suggested an extraordinary breakdown of trust between Edward and his Government amid the constitutional crisis in December 1936.
The Cabinet papers also show the huge lengths the then Home Secretary Sir John Simon went to try and keep a lid on the looming controversy after a journalist leaked the story....

England make move for Farrell
ESPNscrum Staff
March 30, 2012
England's Six Nations coaching team is set to be reunited © Getty Images
England's 2012 Six Nations coaching team could be reunited in full-time roles during the next few days.
That prospect has moved a step closer following a brief Saracens statement on Friday that "cordial and constructive discussions" have started between themselves and the Rugby Football Union. Those talks will focus on current Saracens first team coach Andy Farrell, who was part of England's coaching team alongside Stuart Lancaster and Graham Rowntree.
The Saracens statement read: "Saracens and the RFU today started cordial and constructive discussions on the subject of support staff for newly-appointed England coach Stuart Lancaster. The club will not provide a running commentary on this process and will make no further comment until the deliberations reach a conclusion."
The RFU on Thursday upgraded Six Nations interim head coach Stuart Lancaster to a permanent role on a contract that will incorporate World Cup 2015 in England. Forwards specialist Graham Rowntree, Press Association Sport understands, is set to follow Lancaster by landing a long-term deal. And that then leaves the possible sticking point - backs and defence coach Farrell, the dual code rugby international who is Saracens' first team coach and under contract to them.
Lancaster, Rowntree and Farrell - despite being together for just eight weeks - masterminded a second-placed finish in this season's Six Nations. England won four out of their five Tests, including claiming three away victories for the first time in one Six Nations campaign.
They also went within a converted try of holding eventual Six Nations and Grand Slam champions Wales. Lancaster has said he knows the coaching team he wants to take England forward, with his next assignment being a three-Test tour of South Africa in June when England will face the Springboks in Durban, Johannesburg and Port Elizabeth on successive weekends.
The appointment of Rowntree, who is already on the RFU payroll, is not expected to pose any problems. But prising Farrell from Saracens may be a trickier proposition, with their chief executive Edward Griffiths insistent that they do not want to lose him. The fact that talks are under way, though, suggests Farrell could be on his way to England sooner, rather than later, especially if a satisfactory financial compensation deal can be thrashed out.

This makes as much sense as Ross and Rachel's split in the mid 90's. According to TSN.ca the NHL and NHLPA are thinking about stepping back: The offer was made during a phone conversation on Wednesday and didn't produce an answer. According to the sources, Fehr told Bettman he would need to bounce the idea off his membership before responding. "We are extremely disappointed in where we and the Players find ourselves," deputy commissioner Bill Daly said Thursday evening. "And from our perspective, we have made repeated moves in the Players' direction with absolutely no reciprocation. Unfortunately, we have determined we are involved with Union leadership that has no genuine interest in reaching an agreement. Regardless of what we propose, or how we suggest to compromise the answer is "no." At some point you just have to say "enough is enough." ffff uuuuuu

KADUNA, Nigeria (Reuters) - Gunmen killed more than 100 people in an attack on three villages in central Nigeria, an area where longstanding disputes over land, religion and ethnicity often erupt into violence, two local government officials said on Sunday.
Police confirmed the raids by Fulani herdsman late on Friday on the villages of Ugwar Sankwai, Ungwan Gata and Chenshyi, in Kaduna state, but declined to give a death toll.
Hundreds have been killed in the past year in clashes pitting the cattle-herding and largely Muslim Fulani people against mostly Christian settled communities like the Berom in Nigeria's volatile "Middle Belt", where its mostly Christian south and Muslim north meet.
The unrest is not linked to the insurgency in the northeast by Boko Haram, an al Qaeda-linked group which wants to impose sharia law in northern Nigeria.
However, analysts say there is a risk the insurgents will try to stoke central Nigeria's conflict. Though most of the Islamist sect's attacks are contained further north but it did claim a 2011 Christmas Day bomb attack at a church in Jos.
"Fulani gunmen came across from neighbouring Plateau state and just opened fire on the villagers at around 11 p.m.," said Daniel Anyip, vice chairman of the Kaura local government authority. "We are still picking bodies out of the bush but so far there are more than 100 killed."
Andrew Kazah, another local councillor, said at least 96 had been killed, but that the toll was likely to go up.
Human Rights Watch in December said sectarian clashes in the nation's religiously mixed central region had killed 3,000 people since 2010, adding that Nigerian authorities had largely ignored the violence, an accusation they denied.
Though it sometimes takes on a sectarian character, the violence is fundamentally about decades-old land disputes between semi-nomadic, cattle-keeping communities such as the Fulani and settled farming peoples such as the Berom, both often armed with automatic weapons.
Nigeria is Africa's most populous nation with almost 170 million people, split roughly equally between Christians and Muslims and around 250 different ethnic groups who mostly live peacefully side-by-side.
But the central region has been a tinderbox for decades.
Its violence, far from economic centres or oil fields in Africa's second-biggest economy and top oil producer, rarely captures the attention of its elites.

DALLAS -- Jamie Benn scored twice, Kari Lehtonen made 35 saves, and the Dallas Stars beat the Calgary Flames 4-1 on Saturday in a matchup of Western Conference playoff contenders.
Michael Ryder also scored for the Stars, who improved to 87 points and are in the middle of a six-team scramble along with the Flames (83 points) for one of the final two playoff spots.
The Stars had moved into the Pacific Division lead with a 10-0-1 run, but they'd lost three of their previous four to tumble out of the top spot in the division and hurt their playoff hopes.
Brenden Morrow tapped in an empty-netter at 18:32 of the third period to clinch the win for Dallas.
Mike Cammalleri scored and Miikka Kiprusoff stopped 16 shots for the Flames, who had lost their previous three games in overtime or shootouts.
Dallas wrapped up a 2-2 homestand and begins a four-game trip Monday night in Calgary, the next game for both teams.
Calgary, 5-2-4 in its past 11 games, completed an 0-1-2 road trip.
Benn got his team off to a fast start at 1:37 of the first period, taking a pass from Adam Burish, skating from behind the net and stuffing a shot past Kiprusoff on Dallas' first shot of the game.
The Stars got a fortunate bounce at 3:03 of the opening period when a shot by Calgary's Blake Comeau banged off the right post, bailing out Lehtonen.
Ryder made it 2-0 at 7:17 of the first, firing his career-best 33rd goal by Kiprusoff from the right circle.
The Flames grabbed some momentum when Cammalleri notched his 16th from the right circle at 12:27 of the first period.
Cammalleri had missed the previous nine games with an upper-body injury.
Calgary built a 14-6 edge in shots in a scoreless second period.
Benn scored on a one-timer from the slot off a Steve Ott pass to give Dallas a two-goal edge at 16:27, Benn's 24th of the season.
The Flames continue to struggle on offence, having managed six goals in their past five games.
Notes: The Stars paid tribute to former D Karlis Skrastins prior to the game. Skrastins was a member of the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl team when the Latvian native died in a plane crash in Russia last September en route to a Kontinental League game in Minsk. His widow, Zane, and three daughters participated in the ceremony. The Stars have been wearing No. 37 patches on their uniforms this season in honour of Skrastins, who played two full seasons in Dallas. ... D Mark Fistric (abdominal strain) was out for Dallas. ... The Flames were without C Mikael Backlund (shoulder), D T.J. Brodie (upper body) and D Cory Sarich (upper body).
