How do bureaucrats behave as regulators?
Bureaucrats work as regulators in two general ways:
Decrease of Efficiency: As anyone who has worked with or worked in a bureaucracy will tell you, the creation of a bureaucracy decreases efficiency because it puts more people between a person and his objective. This increases the requisite "desire" level necessary for the benefit to be sought and therefore limits the amount of requests put into the system. This serves as a form of regulation without actually needing to create a law.
For example, it costs a few hundred dollars to sue somebody in small claims court. Therefore, nobody will sue another individual for $10 in court since the very costs of engaging the system make it a greater loss than the bureaucratic cost to obtain justice. (Of course, this does not prevent $10 suits when the real motivation is not the money but some intangible benefit).
Uniformity of Law: Bureaucracy is also very effective at enforcing standardization in how the law is applied. Bureaucracies can create complicated but replicable systems for dealing with various issues. It (theoretically) prevents individuals who are wealthier from just getting their way.
For example, if a rich foreign national comes to the United States, he cannot just pay the governor of Arizona to become an American citizen. There is an immigration bureaucracy that he must deal with that determines whether or not he can become a United States citizen.

What are executive powers held by the Senate?
Technically, there are no executive powers held by the Senate. Executive powers are those held by the President of the United States. The powers that the Senate holds are: to try the President on impeachment, but not to impeach him, the power to approve treaties by a 2/3 vote and make amendments to already approved votes, and the power approve of the appoints of many government officials. The last power that our Senate holds is in declaring war. However, in most aspects of the government system, all powers are shared between the different branches of government. For example, the Senate may declare war, but the President is Commander-in-Chief and must share the decision making process. The Senate may also hold trials for it's own members if rules have been broken, but only four members have been successfully convicted of crimes and most resign before being dismissed from the Senate.
