has sgied to decide to double the number of troops in iraq but president obama says it's not a sign they're losing the fight, but instead a shift to a new phase. offensive strategy instead of defensive. meanwhile there are cop fligting reports on the fate of al baghdadi. there was an attempt to kill side leaders, but unknown if the top guy was among them. joining me now to talk about this, paul crookshank, cnn terrorism analyst as well as colonel reese, global affairs analyst. paul, first let's talk about these reports about al baghdadi being dead. this is not iraq's version of the pentagonpentagon. what do we make of this? >> there is significant skepticism. different parts of the iraqi government are making different claims about different strikes on different days. of course this very same iraqi government back in september, the prime minister was in new york and he made this claim about this isis plot against the subways in n subways in new york. so there is a lot of skepticism. not confirmed by the americans. >> and not much iraq's prime minister. colonel, i think it begs a bigger ques

running ad sgi less pi will li lose the election, but perhaps there is a place for him on dan snyder's payroll. that's all for now. ed show is up next. >>> good evening, americans. welcome to the ed show live from tampa, florida. let's get to work. >> governor rick scott and charlie crist going head to head. >> there is excitement for charlie crist. >> and the best organized ground game i've ever seen. >> charlie crist is about the future. >> i was told he wasn't going to show up. >> and rick scott is just a terrible past. >> a guy who ran a company who had to pay the largest fine for fraud. >> how would i know what -- >> charlie crist has the ability to right the ship. >> we're all in this together. >> what wins the election is vote are turn skrout. >> stand up and take back this state. >> both biden and crist were making sure votes got to the polls. >> we want people's governor. >> a new governor that has a heart and cares about you. >> how would i know what, i mean -- >> good to have you with us. it's almost here. tomorrow marks election day and key races around the country cooperat

and now today we are in the former sgi campus. so if you take a look at the growth rate, one of the things we talk about in the book is that companies don't really have long-term plans. they have plans for the next year. ultimately you need a 5-year plan, so ultimately what happened was, you and a set of other people said, this is the growth rate, the hiring plan, and off we go. >> what was interesting was the way we were able to scale the culture. around the same time during 2002 there was a notion, you said, we are a 1-building company and a 1-building culture, and it will not work if we are spread across multiple buildings. it was staring me. given how we are growing, down to 80 square feet per person. and hang on. how will we get our culture to scale. what are some of the insights you guys developed over time in terms of how to scale the culture? >> i think that at the outset google had a mission that was clear and created a sense of selection early on so that we got people that really believe in that same mission. and when we

and one day they were roller blading, and they roller bladed over to the sgi campus, and they came back and said we're going to need that campus. and now today we're in the former campus. etc., etc. so if you take a look at the growth rate, you can actually plot it. one of the things we talk about in the book is companies don't really have long-term plans. they have plans for the next year. and so, ultimately, you need a five-year plan. so, ultimately, what happened was you and a set of other people said these are the growth rates, this is the hiring plan, and off we go. >> i think it was really interesting the way we were able to scale the culture. because around the same time as jonathan during 2002, there was this notion -- and i remember you put a fine point on it where you said we're a one-building company and a one-building culture, and it's not going to work if we aren't spread across multiple buildings. and i remember that really scaring me. we were down to 80 square feet per person, i was like, hang on, how are we going to get our culture to scale? what were some of the insight
