%N Primes p such that p+q*(r+s) is prime, where p,q,r,s are consecutive primes.

%C Includes p if p, q = p+2, r = p+6, s = p+8 are consecutive primes and 2*p^2+19*p+28 is prime. The generalized Dickson's conjecture implies there are infinitely many such p.

%e a(3) = 11 is a term because 11,13,17 and 19 are consecutive primes and 11+13*(17+19) = 479 is prime.
