Not to mention that if you put the app on your website for people to download, your website's ugliness will put people off and think "OMG! Do I really want to put an ugly monstrosity on my computer that everyone is going to look at?" If you can't design a website to be asthetically pleasing, what makes you think your app is going to be astetically pleasing?

You should also really take off that CSS Validates button from your website.

You could have learned tons of things from us, but like Jessii said, you never listened to our suggestions before, so why are you 'Starting' to now?

looks much better with the template, just, drop the "NG APP" banner, or at least make it look prettier..

So uhm yeah, RSS feed syndication + hard somehow these two don't seem go along IMO.
All you need to do is this

var dld = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XmlHTTP");
dld.open("GET","feed_url");
dld.send();
dld.onreadystatechange=function()
{
   if (dld.readystate==4)
   {
      //parse dld.responseXML
   }
}

As for the parsing, I don't think that should be a problem.
I didn't try any of the code presented to you, but it should work.
Also the raw file ng provides has a template gradient for the buttons, why don't you use that for the header? The current one looks old
