Intersting find. I imagine the "cool" side might have a chance to develop life if there's no rotation.Actually it would have to happen on its vertical equatorial line. Sort of like Larry Niven's Ringworld off it's diet.

I imagine it would depend upon it's atmosphere. If it had a nice solid atmosphere convection could help it considering the tremenous temperaures on the sun side.
But then again we know that there are certain organisms that thrive in extreme temperatures.
