You can also use Tappcons, they are blue screws you can get at home improvement places. There is a carbide tipped drill bit sized just for them, sold with them. You can drill right thru the wood plate, and screw the tappcon right into the concrete...it cut's it's own threads. I get the kind with the hex head rather than phillips screw...easier to torque.

Be sure to use a piece of treated lumber for that bottom plate as well. Sometimes construction adhesive will work just as well.
