This is an example of making a CORS request. If you have access to the server (which I assume you do since this is a request to localhost), you will need to add CORS-specific response headers. The simplest thing to do is to add the following response headers:

Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Authorization

Your server also needs to be configured to respond to HTTP OPTIONS requests. You can learn more about making CORS requests here: http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/cors/
