@Ryan - pulled your branch and experimented with a few things. In doing so,
it dawned on me that by adding the yarn and hadoop classpath, you probably
didn't introduce a new classpath issue, rather you probably just moved onto
the next classpath issue, ie hbase per your exception about hbase jaxb.
Anyhow, I put up a branch with some pom changes worth trying in conjunction
with invoking the rest app startup via "/usr/bin/yarn jar"
