Alexey, in addition to Eric's very good comments, the other thing that's worth
checking is to do a "sudo touch /forcefsck" (which will force an fsck on the
next reboot) before shutting down your system -- or do it early in your login
session, before you do something dangeorus that might require a forced
reboot/power cycle of your system).   

We need to distinguish between a file which was being replaced at the time of
the power failure (and some desktop applications/toolkits are very update-happy
in terms of constantly rewriting application dot files) versus the file system
actually becoming corrupt.
