Fill in each blank unshaded cell with a positive integer less than 100, such that every consecutive group of unshaded cells within a row or column is an arithmetic sequence. You do not need to prove that your answer is the only one possible; you merely need to find an answer that satisfies the constraints above. (Note: In any other USAMTS problem, you need to provide a full proof. Only in this problem is an answer without justification acceptable.)
