To the point...
I can open and see rss with firefox, but there is no way to do it with calibre, it says failed feed and anything else.

Here is what I did: I opened the first link in this RSS feed in my browser and was presented with a 'nice' flash movie. You can click this away or sit it out and only after that you can read the article. Any subsequent link from the same feed opens without that flash movie.
Next I destroyed all my cookies and clicked 'reload'. There was the flash movie again.
Nice...
Now, as far as I understand Calibre uses only one instance of a browser to parse pages; and that browser supports cookies. So a possible workaround is to parse the feeds by hand, open the first article manually, ignore the result and let Calibre proceed. As cookies are now set, it should work. Or maybe not, I don't know.
Maybe Kovid can tell if this is feasible.
