Senators often refer to bills or nominations "on the calendar." They are referring to the legislative calendar, or to the executive calendar, not this daily calendar.

The legislative calendar is maintained by the Secretary of the Senate and is made available online by the Government Printing office. The legislative calendar is at http://www.access.gpo.gov/congress/browse-sc.html.
