Normans built houses primarily using timber frames, wattle and daub, and thatched roofs. The construction often featured a central hall for communal living, surrounded by smaller rooms for sleeping and storage. They also utilized local materials, such as stone in more permanent structures, especially for castles and churches. The design reflected their social hierarchy, with wealthier families having larger, more elaborate homes.

Where are castles no longer needed?
Well, they are no longer useful because modern weapons make the castles of old obsolete. We currently have weapons powerful enough to completely devastate an old castle, and everyone inside it. Or even bunker-buster missiles that could probably be adapted to pinpoint a specific area of a castle and take out a target located there. It would take a lot of resources, time, and effort to build a castle, and it simply is not worth it when the enemy can just bomb it into dust.
As to no longer being needed, we obviously do still have warfare in modern times, so they could still provide some (very limited) benefit. Some people still do employ underground bunkers to try to safeguard important personnel and/or resources. For example Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein was captured hiding in a small underground bunker not too long ago (ok, mostly a hole in the ground). And supposedly the US President has access to at least one personal underground bunker (not sure on how factual that is, but I would not doubt that at least one such bunker was built during the Cold War). And in World War II above ground bunkers were also often employed to try to give fortified positions a better chance to hold, as well as some fortified walls (e.g. the Maginot Line). Many more underground military installations were built during the Cold War, one was even built into the Cheyenne Mountain. That's about as close to castles as we usually get in modern warfare.
What is Pembroke castle made of?
All very good points to which I'd add only the suoisetggn that companies think very carefully about their intended audience, long before launching a blog. Specifically, are they speaking to their prospective and/or existing customers, or to employees/management and/or shareholders? I've yet to see a blog that does both very effectively. (Not saying it can't be done just haven't seen it yet, myself.)
Can someone list all of the stickpage castle and castle repercussions characters and if there dead?
I can't remember every single significant character or sigfigs in the series. But I'll start from what I can remember.
Etrius-- the main character to the Castle 3, or what I thought from the start. He relunctantly joins up with the General in an effort to save mankind, so he thought. He helped get two books from two other characters, and upon the the third castle, he was ordered to retrieve a black orb by the General. However, something happened to it after direct contact. And using what seemed to be an extreme form of psychokinesis, he kills a nearby soldier who was reporting to the General. The General shot him in the head. Etrius lost conciousness as he saw the General escape with the orb. After Repercussions, it is shown that his body is gone, either indicating that his body was moved, or that he is still somewhat breathing. Oscar hasn't released this info yet, so we still have to wait on that.
Lloyd--the guy with the sword. You can't miss him. I haven't watched Castle 1 or 2, but apparently he seems to kick major @$$. There is no assault/battle records on how good Lloyd can fight. He was enroute with the General to retrieve the black orb, but was ambushed by stick creatures. He pulled his sword on the General after hearing Beecher tell him to "stop him". But after being ambushed by stick creatures, he, Beecher, and Boomer ran for their lives. Unfortunately, the ground cracked and made a huge crevice. Beecher and Boomer were able to escape. But Lloyd was unable to make the jump, and was thus sealed in the room with Etrius. He makes another stunning appearance in Castle Repercussions taking on the stick creatures side, spitting out blood. His name is also called out that saved helicopter pilot Plisskin during Castle Repercussions part c/3. Nothing is confirmed about this character's ending. But it's possible he may make another reappearance in the next series Oscar is planning on making.
Beecher--one of the cool dudes with an assault rifle. He is also within the four-man team along with Etrius, Boomer, and Lloyd. Beecher is close to Etrius when it comes to mutual friendship. He joins the General in an attempt to retrieve the black orb, only to find out that he shoots Etrius. He makes an attempt to stop him but is thwarted by the ambush of stick creatures. His shooting skills is pretty good, seeing how he was able to pick off some of the creatures jumping onto the helicopter pilot Plisskin was piloting with one shot. He escapes with the General. But nothing else can be confirmed about his assault/battle records, or his future ending.
Boomer--one of the stick figures with the blond hair. He is also within the four-man team along with Etrius, Beecher, and Lloyd. He joins General in an attempt to retrieve the black orb, but is ambushed by stick creatures. He meets up with Beecher and the General outside the center room, where they are attacked by stick dragons. The stick dragon is shot down and causes a collapse within a bridge that separates Boomer from the General along with three other soldiers. It is apparent that he has super speed, strength, and inhumane instincts. He is notable for crushing the stick figures with his bare hands and his complimented by a soldier named Sergeant Mullins, quote: "What drugs are you on Boomer?" Boomer is very respectable of his teammates. He also has a cold/brutal personality. But it his determination to help other survive along with himself that enables him to escape the castle along with Sergeant Mullins, Helicopter Pilot Plisskin, Private Ray, and Some Other Guy.
General--the anti-hero to the castle series. He is under a certain superior that is funding him and his project. He also organized the four-man team to accompany him to complete his objective. He wears a dark grey cap and has a pistol with him at all times. He, Beecher and Boomer manages to escape the center room during the stick creature ambush. But on the bridge, he is separated from Boomer and several other soldiers. Luckily, he makes it to the helicopter pad, and with Beecher and many other lucky soldiers, he escapes.

What did a steward look like medieval?
Most stewards were either clerics or untitled members of the lesser nobility or freemen. If they were clerics, then they looked pretty plain. If they were members of the lesser nobility or freemen, then they usually tried to fit in with whatever was fashionable at the time. There is a link to a related question below, "What was medieval clothing like?"
What are founds between layers of concentric lamallae?
The spaces found between layers of concentric lamellae in bone tissue are known as lacunae. These small cavities house osteocytes, which are mature bone cells that maintain the bone matrix. The lacunae are interconnected by tiny channels called canaliculi, allowing for communication and nutrient exchange between osteocytes. This structure is essential for the overall health and maintenance of bone tissue.
