I'm partial to Bogen/Manfrotto's "Stacker" stands-

Avenger C Stand (A228SCB) detachable turtle base, 60" riser (good center of gravity), and 15lbs. I recommned this extra weight at that height for stability. Add the sandbags, as Ellis suggested, if you are shooting outdoors where there could be a breeze.

... or if you're shooting around kids, pets, people drinking, models in high heels, or when there's any chance you'll be working around the stands at the end of a long day when you're tired ...

Sandbags are some of the cheapest insurance you'll ever buy (um, or MAKE - it's not rocket science!).
