The syntax is wrong. Try

  Style gDeskCal Layer 0
  Style gDesklets Layer 0

Likely, both applications set their own layer hints. Try the
styles

  Style gDeskCal EWMHIgnoreStackingOrderHints, GnomeIgnoreHints, EWMHIgnoreStateHints
  Style gDesklets EWMHIgnoreStackingOrderHints, GnomeIgnoreHints, EWMHIgnoreStateHints

(if probably one of the three options is enough).
