Ancient messenger's run in Athens?

Would it be contempt of court if a member of the jury was drawing pictures of the witnesses?
Not necessarily. In many (all?) jurisdictions jurors are issued notebooks in which to make notes, and record observations and self-memoes. In my experience, as long as the jurors were engaged in the trial process there was no monitoring of what they were recording in them. At the conclusion of the trial and after the jury had renedered its verdict, the notebooks were collected, turned over to the presiding judge, and destroyed.
What is the meaning of 12 jury's?
In the beginning of a criminal trial, 14 jurors are chosen. At the end of the trial, 2 of those are excused so you can have 12 jurors. Only 12 can sit and deliberate to come to a verdict. The two are excused but are on call just in case one of the 12 that are deliberating can no longer deliberate (that is, get sick or something like that). When this happens, one or both of the excused jurors are call in to deliberate with the other jurors. Also when this happens, once a new juror is added to the group, the whole group is instructed to start deliberating from the beginning all over again.

How many jurors were dismissed during the course of o.j Simpsons double murder trial?
As far as I know eight jurors were dismissed for various reasons. The prosecution and the defense were a little nervous since the pool of alternates was being drained. If they run out of alternate jurors the whole process would have been done over starting with a new jury selection, which would have doubled the cost of the already multi-million dollar trial, and would have doubled the time of the trial which was 10 months.

What does a defense attorney need to be concerned about with jurors in a murder trial?
During jury selection he would want to eliminate the choice of any prospective jurors who he believes might be prejudiced against his case (peremptory challenges). During trial he would want to continually observe them and attempt to "read" their actions to try and determine whether his arguments were being received favorably (or not). Other than that there really isn't too much more he can do, or exercise he can control over juror(s). The jury, once empaneled, is under the authority of the judge and under the control (and watchful eye of) the Court Bailiffs who will protect the jurors against anyone wishing to contact or speak to them.
