i usually just use one hop for bittering like magnum or target. Then add whatever aroma and flavouring hops. the only time i don't do this is in a beer with little or no late hopping like a mild or hefe. in this case i use a larger amount of low alpha hops.
a few classic combinations would be amarillo/citra, cascade/centenial, fuggles/EKG

All hops can be used at any point in the boil, just because a particular hop is usually used as a bittering hop doesn't mean it can't be used for aroma or flavor. Same with aroma hops, you can bitter with them just fine.
