Thanks to the many....over 20....responses in regard to my log problem. 
I presently have written the log off as a loss.

My restart.bin has trash in it and my logback.dat is empty.  I do have a
list of dupes :) and about 30 Q's that did get written to the disk for
some reason.

I will look for a cheap UPS as suggested.  I will also do my disk
back-ups as I should have done.  

Everyone else...heads-up.  It could happen to you as well. I should
really know better as I work daily in a software development
environment.
