                  ORDERS FOR MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 2009

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that when the Senate 
completes its business today, it adjourn until 2 p.m., Monday, January 
12; that following the prayer and pledge, the Journal of proceedings be 
approved to date, the morning hour be deemed expired, the time for the 
two leaders be reserved for their use later in the day, and then there 
be a period for morning business for up to 1 hour designated for 
tributes to the Republican leader; that following that hour, the Senate 
resume the motion to proceed to S. 22, the lands bill, with the time 
during any adjournment or period of morning business counting 
postcloture.
  If you wonder why we are doing this for the leader--of course, we do 
this ofttimes for the Republican leader. But on a serious note, 
tomorrow he will have served longer than any other Senator in the 
history of Kentucky. We will ask our colleagues to join in the 
celebration. We have time set aside for that so everyone can do that.
  There is no objection; is that right, Mr. President?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
