Can someone explain what would happen if I am in the middle of mining a block and I restart my cgminer? Will I lose the block? or will it just pick up where I left off?

Thanks

The Bitcoin software, network, and concept is called "Bitcoin" with a capitalized "B". Bitcoin currency units are called "bitcoins" with a lowercase "b" -- this is often abbreviated BTC.

With Bitcoin Solo mining the only share you send is a block solve if you find it.  So if you restart your miner it will get a new batch of work for the current block and work on it.  Nothing lost.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
