Syntax:  JMP label
 
  Transfers program execution to the address specified by the destination
  operand. By default, jumps are near (between -32768 and 32767 bytes from
  the instruction following the jump), but you can use an override to make
  them short (between -128 and 127 bytes) or far (in a different code
  segment). With near and short jumps, the operand specifies a new IP
  address. With far jumps, the operand specifies new IP and CS
  addresses.
