Why are there part 141 and 61 flight schools?
Shouldn't every flight school be accredited by the FAA???
There are a number of answers to your question.
Part of the answer is that the regimented structure of a Part 141 school is not right for all students. Further, there are students who want to learn skills, such as aerobatics or tailwheel operations, which don't fall under the Part 141 structure. Pilots seeking the Sport Pilot certificate would also be out of luck without Part 61 training.
Beyond that, on the school side, meeting the requirements of Part 141 can be expensive, and could make it prohibitive to have pilot schools in rural locations or for less-common segments of aviation. (Not all airports have enough business to provide even the 10 students which Part 141 requires every 2 years; it might be similarly difficult to bring large enough numbers of students into a sailplane training operation.) Making instruction unavailable in such places or for such operations would discourage recreational aviation and harm safety.
Beyond this, the important standards are the same in Part 61 and Part 141 schools. Flight and ground instructors in both kinds of schools hold the same certificates, issued by the same FAA. Students who complete training are held to the same standards in their testing no matter where they trained. For purposes of safety, and of standardization, these are much more important than FAA approval of a specific facility or the wording in a particular training course description.
In the sense that everyone is held to the same FAA-specified standards, everyone is accredited by the FAA. As far as having a variety of ways to approach those standards goes, it's a good thing. In the words of Austin Powers, "It's freedom, baby, yeah!"

What does the FAA consider night flight time in ones pilot log?
Please feel free to indentify the FAR quote defining this....what hours? Links....if you can...
Below is the official FAA answer found in FAR 1.1
Night means the time between the end of evening civil twilight and the beginning of morning civil twilight, as published in the American Air Almanac, converted to local time.
The definition of the word ”night” as it applies to logging flight time and an interpretation of Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) Section 61.57(d).
The word ”night” is defined in the FAR's in Section 1.1.That section states that night ”means the time between the end of evening civil twilight and the beginning of morning civil twilight, as published in the American Air Almanac, converted to local time. ”The Almanac contains tables that show evening civil twilight and morning civil twilight for different latitudes. From these tables, you can determine when evening civil twilight ends and morning civil twilight begins, convert these figures into local time, and calculate the time spent in night flight accordingly. Flight time after evening civil twilight ends and before morning civil twilight begins can be properly logged as night flight time.
FAR Section 61.57(d) contains the recent night flight experience requirements applicable to persons who act as pilot in command of an aircraft. The description of night as the ”period beginning 1 hour after sunset and beginning 1 hour before sunrise (as published in the American Air Almanac)” applies only to the passenger–carrying requirements of that section. This definition of ”night” should be used only for the purposes of that section.
