By jamesward:

To run the app locally (even to do mvn package / run the tests) you need a local postgres db and the DATABASE_URL env var. We need to add some info around that.

I still don't like using foreman to run the app since it isn't included in the some of the heroku toolbelt installs. And since we are using war packaging we should be able to just do the regular `mvn jetty:run` thing which is more familar to Java devs.
