The Mohegan Sun Casino opens its new Casino of the Wind today, but the grand opening will be a month-long affair in October, and the casino’s arena will be part of the celebration.

International pop star Enrique Iglesias will perform in the Arena Oct. 2, with Janet Jackson following on Oct. 11. (Also on Oct. 11, the celebrity group Band From TV, featuring stars such as Teri Hatcher, James Denton and Hugh Laurie, will play for free in the Wolf Den.)

Later in the month, comedians Bill Engvall and Robin Williams will perform, Oct. 23 and 26, respectively, and rock legends The Who will play Oct. 28.

A judge in Texas has ordered the father of actress and singer Hilary Duff to spend 10 days in jail for contempt of court.

Bob Duff was led away in handcuffs Wednesday during a court hearing after Judge Thomas Stansbury in Houston determined he violated an injunction against selling assets without court approval.

The Houston Chronicle reported in its online edition that Bob Duff must pay into a court repository $367,537 he earned from selling stocks last month.

Bob and Susan Duff are in the midst of a bitter divorce.

Stansbury determined Bob Duff should pay Susan $12,500 for Hilary’s birthday party, which was the subject of the hearing. Her mother wanted $25,000 to pay for a present and party.

Neither Hilary, whose 21st birthday is Sept. 28, nor her sister Haylie were in court.
