Not familiar with the terminology "throw out plea," but it sounds as if the defense attorney is offering ("throwing out") the offer of a plea bargain in exchange for a pleading his client guilty to a lesser offense.

It is exactly that, what you plead initially. Usually, people initially plead not guity to any offense.

Does pleading no contest show on your criminal background?

Yes, unfortunately it does, and the military and any companies that do criminal background checks consider a deferred case as an admission of guilt. If you are ever arrested for anything, that arrest record will show up on your profile even if you are proven to be not guilty. The justice system in the US is terribly flawed, and don't beat yourself up over your incident--as our freedom is slowly eradicated, more and more people will have charges on their profile until people like us are no longer a minority. Learn from your mistakes, move on, and don't look back.

Explain how O J Simpson was tried in both Civil and Criminal Courts found guilty in one not guilty in the other but no one posed the double jeopardy angle?

Criminal and Civil are different. A Criminal trial is on behalf of the People or State or such like against the accused. A Civil hearing is when one person or group or such like sues another or such like, usually for damages or rectification. Criminal take precedent over Civil and the burden of proof is higher in Criminal - 'Beyond a reasonable doubt' rather than 'On the balance of probabilities' in Civil. 'Double jeopardy' means you cannot be tried [Criminal trial] for the exact same crime twice - after a verdict has been reached the first time. In Civil once you have accepted the rectification, money or otherwise you cannot take the same action again against those you were successful against. O. J. was found not guilty in a criminal court but that did not debar a civil action for damages and in the Civil hearing he was not and could not be found guilty of the criminal charge of murder.
